Chapter 39 Sub-base Construction and Talent Selection

Zhou Chen understood that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, there were still forty-five years before the Fei Luo civilization arrived on Earth, and there were still thirty years before the full evacuation, to some extent, he still had enough time.

A spark can start a prairie fire, and the belongings that the Earth Fleet currently has are this prairie fire!

"Dandan, under the condition of ensuring that the construction of the main base is not affected, how much strength can the fleet allocate to build the sub-base?" Zhou Chen asked at the white robot not far in front of him.

There was hardly any delay, and Dandan immediately replied: "At present, the construction of the main base is on track, and the forces that can be mobilized at will are mainly the existing ten warships of the Earth Fleet, and 50,000 robots can be transferred from the main base to participate in the construction of the sub-base, and if there are too many of them, it is easy to affect the follow-up planning of the main base." ”

"That's ......" Zhou Chen groaned, thinking quickly in his head.

"Commander, are you ready to start building sub-bases?"

"Yes!"

Zhou Chen thought about it for a while, and felt that it was necessary to start the follow-up construction task!

After all, the number of spaceships that a fleet can eventually have is related to how many people it can take away, and the biggest constraint to increasing the number of spaceships by means of explosives is the number of resources and whether they have the technology to make effective use of these resources.

At this time, the Earth Fleet has quite complete technical reserves, so the real constraint on development is actually the number of resources.

In Zhou Chen's vision, the resources of the asteroid belt and Jupiter were planned to be used to build the main base and the future Earth fleet, but those more distant planets were inconvenient for material transportation due to the distance. Instead of tossing back and forth, it is better to directly build the sub-base to their side.

"The progress of the main base must not be affected, and it is best not to call the Lanqiong as a flagship. In this way, send out nine subsidiary ships and carry another 50,000 robots to participate in the construction of the sub-base! ”

"As for the location of the sub-base...... For the time being, choose the Kuiper belt, let the fleet move there in nine directions, and then start the construction of the sub-base as soon as possible! ”

How to make full and effective use of resources is a topic worth discussing, but fortunately, with the help of Dandan's simulation, Zhou Chen can come up with a plan that produces the best output.

The Kuiper Belt is a very large area of the outer solar system, where there are so many fragmented asteroids and meteorites that it is impossible to count.

"Send nine detachments to the nine directions of the Kuiper belt, led by nine auxiliary ships of the Earth Fleet, carrying a total of 50,000 robots, please confirm that the order is correct!"

"Correct!" Zhou Chen said affirmatively.

At this time, he remembered something, and added: "Also, try to choose to have these nine detachments stationed near larger planets, and if there are no larger planets nearby, choose to establish a sub-base in a place with relatively dense celestial bodies." ”

"Understood!"

Dandan gave a definite answer, and after computer simulation, he quickly replied: "The coordinates of the nine detachments are determined, namely: Pluto, Ornith, Eris, Haumeea, Tronis, and four other dwarf planets......"

"Hmm!"

Zhou Chen estimated that with nine auxiliary ships as the core, with the corresponding construction robots, it was enough to build nine sub-bases.

Although the resources obtained from the sub-bases may be much, much less than those on the asteroid belt and Jupiter, and they are constrained by the lack of manpower from the beginning of construction, they are better than nothing, and these sub-bases can still provide a lot of help to the Earth fleet to a greater or lesser extent!

Although these sub-bases may not be able to support the construction of large residential ships or warships due to the efficiency of resource exploitation, they are more than enough to manufacture a certain number of small probes and combat vehicles for the fleet.

Of course, when it comes to making the best use of resources, big planets like Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are not to be missed.

They are the second largest planet in the solar system after Jupiter, and the resources they contain are immeasurable! Among them, Saturn, like Jupiter, is a gas giant, and Uranus and Neptune are far from the Sun and belong to the perihelia.

These huge planets that are huge and rich in hydrogen and helium elements, Zhou Chen finally left them behind after thinking about it a few times.

The purpose of leaving them is not to preserve their integrity and leave a few pristine planets in the solar system, on the contrary, they are only left for better development!

Zhou Chen already had a plan in his heart, and he was ready to send them over to be responsible for the use of these three planets after the Meteorite and Poseidon were repaired. At that time, relying on these two giant integrated ships, it is easy to build two sub-bases second only to the main base, and then several bases can work together to further enhance the explosive ability of the Earth Fleet.

If this is calculated, all the construction tasks in the solar system will be dispatched.

After clarifying the layout of the solar system, Zhou Chen then set his sights outside the solar system.

There, there is another problem that he needs to solve, and that is to find a planet outside the solar system that is suitable for human habitation or can be used as a temporary rest.

If such a planet can be found, it will be very beneficial for the fleet to evacuate.

In Zhou Chen's fleet, the standard carrying capacity of a habited ship is 7 million people, which is the ultimate carrying capacity to maintain the internal ecological balance. According to this standard, when the Earth fleet leaves the solar system in 30 years, it will have 45 habitant ships, which can carry a total of almost 300 million people.

But if you can find a suitable planet on the way to retreat, as a foothold and replenish supplies, then it will not hurt to take some people out.

Previously, Zhou Chen had made Dandan's calculations and came to the conclusion that if the fleet was overloaded, it could take away up to 1 billion people. It's just that once this is done, all the resources on the fleet will be exhausted after thirty-six years.

Zhou Chen hoped to find such a planet that was less than thirty-six years away from the solar system, so that he could take as many people on the earth as possible.

Of course, Zhou Chen plans to wait for the establishment of the various sub-bases in the Kuiper Belt to explore the direction of human escape.

They can then sail in different directions, looking for planets outside the solar system that are suitable for human habitation or can be replenished. Wherever good news comes, the Earth Fleet will go!

……

The lavish dΓ©cor in the lounge of the Blue Joan is indistinguishable from that of the most upscale hotels on earth.

Zhou Chen sat in front of an oval table that appeared to be made of mahogany, carefully selecting the pile of materials placed in front of him.

"Put the qualified ones on the left, and the unqualified ones on the right......" he muttered to himself, reaching out and rubbing his somewhat tired eyes.

At this time, there are stacks of papers scattered on the table, and if you look closely, you will see that each one records the identity of a person. From birth to kindergarten, to elementary school, junior high school, high school, and even college, everything is clearly recorded, and even which company you currently work for, what industry you are engaged in, and how many honors and achievements you have received from childhood to adulthood.

At this time, he saw a piece of information, and his interest suddenly increased, "Tut...... This person named Cai Xiaoxi is really a not simple person! Zhou Chen couldn't help but admire.

"Cai Xiaoxi, 26 years old this year, was born in the famous 'doctor's home', his parents are experts in the field of materials science and technology, he himself skipped a grade in primary school and graduated in three years, entered the junior class of the University of Science and Technology of China at the age of 14, went to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to study for a doctorate in applied mathematics after graduation, transferred to Harvard University the following year to continue his studies, and won the title of Harvard Outstanding Doctor at the age of 20; Robert Rei received his Ph.D. from Harvard University at the age of 22 and became a researcher and professor at the Institute of Biology at the University of Washington the following year. He is currently an associate professor and doctoral supervisor at the university. ”

This person's experience is not simple at all, and the gorgeous resume definitely blinds the eyes of many people, and even Zhou Chen can't help but have a trace of admiration for him.

"Such a talent is absolutely qualified...... Put the left ......"

Then he saw another piece of information:

"Yin Xi, 22 years old this year, a native of Beijing, was admitted to the 'No. 8 Middle School Abnormal Intelligence Experimental Class' at the age of nine, entered the junior class of Tsinghua University at the age of 12, completed five years of undergraduate study at the age of 17, won a full scholarship from Cambridge University and went to Cambridge to study for a doctorate in physics, received a doctorate at the age of 22 and stayed in the university for postdoctoral studies, was hired as an assistant professor in the Department of Physics of the University of Cambridge, participated in the International Conference on String Theory opened in Beijing a month ago, and was invited by the School of Physics of the University of Science and Technology of China to begin to give lectures for undergraduates and researchers.

"Another talent......"
