Chapter 202: The Second Generation City Module
The documentary "The Dawn of the Future" seems to be very popular, which has led to a significant increase in private consumption, so that East Galaxy Company will have a lot of more "big construction" funds this year.
However, this money cannot be used for shipbuilding for the time being, and it has to be used for urban infrastructure construction, so that their economy can grow more rapidly, and when they have more money, they can build whatever they want.
Basically, on the first day, Mr. Mayor plans the use of the city, the second day the construction truck will complete the earthwork excavation and foundation construction, and on the third day, the pre-produced room will be piled up like a tofu block, and a new building will be formed through a variety of combinations.
In the new building, the functions of each room are modular, including plumbing, wallpaper, and windows, and once they are placed, they will be directly connected to the main pipes of the resettlement area, providing electricity, water purification, safety alarms and other basic functions.
This is also modeled after the structure of the futuristic city described in the novel, but this time it is one step closer and completely enters a new stage, so it is named the second generation city module.
Compared with unmanned units, the leap forward of the spacecraft of the second-generation urban module has less technical improvement, so its birth did not cause waves in the scientific community, but attracted more attention from ordinary people.
But the second-generation city module is still a money-burning thing, fortunately, there is no need to rush to install it like the second-generation spaceship, and you can wait for the popularization slowly.
And what is the most critical role of the second-generation city module? The answer is to make the construction speed soar to 5 times that of the past, and the Moon City will use the belongings accumulated some time ago, spend 15 billion currency, and in 30 days, make a new urban area of 200,000 square meters. to accommodate the growing influx of immigrants.
In recent years, there have been more and more immigrants to the moon city, the inflow rate has become faster and faster, and the proportion of "investment immigrants" has become larger and larger, so it was built 10 years ago, and there is basically no special old house that many rich people look down on; Many immigrants in the moon city are divided internally, and some have accumulated nearly 10 million assets. The same expectation is to buy a better and more luxurious house.
The house in the new town is undoubtedly a great choice for them.
Wandering in the new town, if the old city is a generation gap with the cities on the earth, and the new city is a generation gap with the old city, people who break into it can clearly feel the sense of the future.
More than 1,000 ships fly over the sky every day, and they are growing at such an alarming rate that even the congestion of ground traffic has completely disappeared, as many people have turned to empty routes.
Buildings over 100 meters tall like pine forests, the moon's low gravity makes it much easier to build tall buildings, and their basic environment is much better than in the past. Building this kind of "building" with a more eye-catching effect is undoubtedly something that many people like to do.
There are many progress that ordinary people can't see, and only by living here for a few months can you find the clues, who calls the second-generation urban module a relatively low-level thing, but if you don't lay a good foundation, how can you let other scientific creations play a corresponding role?
For example, the neutrino information hub that is being built on a large scale. They allow information to bypass the limitations of wiring and buildings, and achieve zero network latency within the whole city, but they are hidden in obscurity inside the second-generation city module. It's hard to find its true body.
For example, metal materials, metal cement buildings. Planet Development has reduced the price of conventional metals by more than 50%. The production is still unlimited, which has led to the prevalence of metal materials and metal cement buildings, which have an earthquake resistance level of 8 and a wind resistance level of 12, and can easily build high-rise buildings above 1,000 meters if they are on earth. The exterior is equally beautiful, with a wonderful touch of frosted glass.
For example, at the level of urban planning, they are subject to much less energy constraints than in the past, and the city is once again developing towards the sky, exposing the surface. As a result, the proportion of land buildings has increased substantially.
……
With the completion of the construction of the new urban area, the rapid prosperity and the proof of its existence, the second generation of urban modules became more widely popular.
Since the end of the Second Battle of Pluto, in terms of seniority, the combat power of the East Galaxy Company has been suffocating, even if the founding of the country has not been declared, basically they can represent the entire civilization.
Naturally, the pace of their expansion can be greatly accelerated. As a result, the development department led by the second-generation city module to propose several major engineering plans.
They first supported the pioneers of the lunar frontier, the asteroid belt frontier, the Jupiter frontier, and the Pluto frontier to create 8 small cities with a population of 100,000 in succession, relying on the interconnection of small cities and bases to form a solid and powerful urban agglomeration.
For this proposal, the pioneers will definitely not refuse. How selfless and noble is the initiative of the East Galaxy Company to "aid construction", which is an act to carry forward the future of mankind? They can get the relevant technology license for free, so that the dirty and messy city can be replanned, so that many people can live in a clean and tidy, science fiction city, designed by well-known urban planners and aesthetic masters, how good is it?
In this way, they can attract more pioneers to settle down, work and build, and even study and educate and raise future generations.
Therefore, the promotion of the second-generation urban module in the four major development areas is extremely smooth. It didn't take long for the trade department to take action, and they targeted the five big hooligans on the planet, they were all rich lords, and they were selling them the second-generation city module, do you say they are interested?
The answer is obvious, and the East Galaxy Company will help build a city at most, which will play a role as a template demonstration, and how to get a few countries in the future, even if it is a copycat, you can crack anything in reverse.
Several major countries have experienced the "military imperialism" of the East Galaxy Company on Pluto, so they tend to be conservative in their diplomatic strategies, and when they see the trade department coming to their door, they suddenly dedicate so much technology, and even provide it for free, so that they have a kind of illusion, to the return of the "idealists" they once thought they had, and they can't help but agree with joy.
Of course, from Cao Chuan's point of view, he is not losing money at all, the technology in terms of people's livelihood has no direct threat to them, and secondly, proper publicity will only increase the influence of East Galaxy Company.
One after another, Mars and the asteroid belt appeared 5 cities that introduced the second generation of city modules, and slowly it was the turn of Mercury and Uranus. These two places are not looked down upon by the East Galaxy Company, they who have mastered the second-generation spacecraft, from Jupiter to Pluto in less than a few days, there is no need to open a sub-base, on the contrary, these places are more attractive to other countries, the first also has helium-3, and the second has a vast land. Even the traditional megacities on the earth, Tokyo, the magic capital, New York, and London, which are familiar to countless people, are all thinking of building a second-generation new urban area, where good old trees bloom and bring new development momentum.
