Volume 2 Don't Mess With Me Chapter 142 Shocking Change (6)
After a night without incident, Mordin went to sleep, and at 7 a.m., he was woken up by a burst of phone calls.
It was Yan Ran who called.
Mordin scrambled to his feet and quickly answered the phone.
"Mordin, have you watched the news, something is wrong!" Yan Ran shouted on the phone.
"Didn't look! what's going on?" Mordin had just been woken up, and he hadn't had time to look at his lap.
"Hey, you know how to sleep! I don't care if something so big happens!" Yan Ran, who had always been good-tempered, actually complained to him.
"Did the spacecraft have an accident?" Mordin's first thought was the launch of the "Columbus" last night.
"Yes! Just half an hour ago, the 'Columbus' suddenly disappeared! Now the whole world is talking about it, Mordin, what do you say?"
Mordin could hear that Yan Ran's voice was a little abnormal.
"What to do? Disappearance is expected. Didn't I say there's something wrong with that Captain Jack? ”
"Now people all over the world are saying that robots are going to rule the earth, and they are about to go to war against humans, Mordin, do you think there will be a war?"
It turns out that Yan Ran is afraid of this!
Mordin smiled inwardly.
"Don't be afraid, there is a brother to protect you!" he only dared to say in his heart.
"It's not that serious, is it? Isn't it just a robot captain who secretly drove away from the spaceship, and what does it have to do with robots ruling the earth?" Mordin had to comfort the female classmate.
"No, the experts on TV are saying that robot technology has surpassed us, and sooner or later we will be defeated by robots. I thought it made sense, so I was scared. ”
Oh...... It turned out to be a bunch of sub-experts who were alarmist there!
In order to attract people's attention, these people often vote for the public's favor and blow things up to the gods, in fact, just to raise their own popularity, these people belong to the intellectual hooligans, and they are the most hateful group of people.
"Yan Ran, don't listen to those people's nonsense, if robots want to defeat humans, it's still too early!" Mordin comforted.
In fact, he himself does not believe in this kind of statement, the threat of robots is real, but because of the "Columbus" incident, the public's attention has been aroused, and the mood has gone to the other extreme.
Under Mordin's explanation and persuasion, Yan Ran finally stabilized his mood.
Mordin hung up the phone and turned on his portable phone to check the morning news.
The headlines of major websites have all reported that the "Columbus" spaceship was driven away by the robot captain "Pirate Jack", including those sensational news, and various experts have come out to comment on the so-called cause and truth of this incident, which is really strange.
Unexpectedly, the launch failure of a spacecraft has attracted such strong attention from people all over the world!
Mordin frowned in thought.
"One thing is very strange, so much news unanimously points to the pirate Jack stealing the 'Columbus' spaceship, but, about the question of the robot captain, no more than 10 people know about this matter, but why did the spacecraft just lose contact, why did it unanimously point the finger to that Captain Jack?"
The failure of the spacecraft can be caused by a variety of situations, including damage to communication facilities, interference from the solar wind, and even incorrect positioning of the spacecraft's communication guidance, which will lead to the loss of contact with the spacecraft.
It doesn't have to be the captain who drove the ship away, right?
There are also those experts, who know that humans have arranged a lot of emergency measures on the "Columbus" spacecraft to prevent robots from getting out of control, even if Captain Jack wants to defect, it is not so easy, but they all insist that Jack has defected, is there some ulterior secret behind this?
The more Mordin thought about it, the more strange things felt.
"Mei Qing's father called me last night, and I believe that they should have taken measures to deal with it earlier, and there shouldn't be much of a problem with them handling this matter. ”
Thinking of this, Mordin decided not to spend too much energy on this matter, he still had more important things to do, his little green sword needed to be placed in the sea of knowledge to be warmed, and the energy of light in the sea of knowledge, which is the so-called "Yuan Force", to feed the green sword, so that its body slowly grew up, the structure was more stable, and its sense of self was more sensitive.
This seems to be a water grinding work, which cannot be rushed and cannot be interrupted.
Mordin is immersed in his own personal world alone, and he doesn't know that the whole world is arguing because of the loss of contact with the "Columbus" spacecraft!
The first to jump out is the largest trade union organization in the North American automotive industry accusing the government of excessive use of intelligent robots, putting trust in machines above honest and reliable industrial workers, and dereliction of duty on such a major issue, which is a crime for taxpayers across the United States, and they demand that the US government immediately stop the large-scale use of intelligent robots, and only after ensuring the employment rate of workers in the automobile industry can we consider the limited use of some intelligent robots.
These trade unions represent the interests of the vast number of workers in the automotive industry who have lost their jobs due to the massive use of intelligent robots, and their ideas have been supported by millions of industrial workers, causing tremendous pressure on the US government.
Then the European Federation of Industrial Workers also stood up to support the view of American workers, believing that their own government is also wantonly squandering the people's tax payments, which makes the huge investment in the landing project of Titan face huge risks, and the people's hard-earned money will be lost.
Because of the large number of countries involved in the Titan landing plan, and the interests it represents have little to do with the self-interests of these ordinary people, the plan has been attacked like never before, and the people of various countries have even shouted the slogan "eat enough to go to Saturn", which has made the politicians of various countries feel unprecedented and enormous pressure.
Among the governments of these countries, the U.S. government is under the most pressure, and they have invested $18 trillion in the construction of the Outer Space Acceleration Ring for the Saturn landing program, which they promised their people that this program could bring millions of jobs to the American people, and once the Saturn project landed successfully, it would also reap huge rewards from the colonization and development of the planet Titan.
And now the "Columbus" spacecraft was declared a failure when it was launched, and the key point of the problem is the reliability of the intelligent robot system, which cannot be solved in a short period of time, therefore, the anger of the people has been provoked, and the major media have made waves, and the spearhead is unanimously aimed at the US government, demanding that the government withdraw from the Saturn landing plan, stop wasting taxpayers' money, and ask for more consideration for the welfare of its own people, and for the country's clumsy medical insurance plan, retirement pension plan, Invest more money in the youth education program!
The same is true in other countries.
Under strong pressure from the people, governments have to come out and declare that they will gradually withdraw from the Saturn landing plan at the right time!
The largest outer space colonization project ever undertaken by mankind could be stillborn!
In the midst of the earth-shaking crusade of the world, only the land of Shenzhou is relatively calm.
But in Lao Zhu's house, the situation is a different story.
The Zhu Group invested a total of 11 trillion US dollars in the Saturn landing plan, although in the construction process of the landing project, the old Zhu family earned back some money with the energy business, but for the huge amount of investment, it is far from enough to return the cost.
Zhu Shanguo, the head of the Zhu Group, originally envisioned that once a corridor between Earth and Titan was established, the development of Titan and the energy needed for spacecraft to travel back and forth would be a lucrative business.
Therefore, in order to ensure the success of the launch of the spacecraft, the old Zhu family can be said to have made every effort, Zhu Shiyu's Blue Bay Club, for a period of time, has been going all out to monitor the intelligent robot system, and they even did not hesitate to turn against the world artificial intelligence system industry giant Alberta Group, and also firmly advocated the use of embedded computer systems, but the result is still a mistake!
Zhu Shiyu was extremely depressed for a while!
His father, Zhu Shanguo, strongly advocated the investment in this project, and now the situation is facing the danger that a huge investment may be wasted, and the pressure from within the family is no less than that of the government.
Now they are faced with two options:
First, continue to invest heavily and go on with it!
Second, transfer the shares and transfer the rights and interests that they claim to have in the project.
Leaving aside the first one, this second one is particularly worth recalling.
At a time when there was a major setback in this huge money-burning project, there were still people willing to come forward to buy the investment shares of the Zhu family!
The middleman who came forward to contact the Zhu family to buy shares seemed to be the head of an independent consortium, but Zhu Shanguo, a business veteran who had worked hard in the mall for decades, was extremely sensitive to all kinds of conspiracies, and he immediately smelled that there might be some ulterior secrets hidden in it.
Therefore, when the family members were clamoring to adopt the second plan, Zhu Shanguo resolutely disagreed with the transfer of shares. Of course, Zhu Shiyu resolutely stood on his father's side, but his two elder brothers fought back during the critical period and voted against their father, which made Zhu Shanguo extremely sad!
In the end, Zhu Shanguo parted ways with other family brothers, and the Zhu group fell apart, and his vitality was greatly damaged!
On the second day of the incident, the trend of the matter gradually became clear, and the leaders of various governments, especially some countries with weak national strength in Europe and the United States, expressed their stance one after another to transfer all or part of the shares of the landing project owned by their respective countries to private financial companies. The U.S. government has also pledged to sell half of its 18% stake and recover about $7 trillion in investment!
Although the $7 trillion was a 20% discount from half of the $9 trillion invested at the time, such a huge amount of cash income immediately made the American people smile, and a dispute collapsed.
Afterwards, after tracking and analyzing by well-intentioned people, those so-called private consortia that came forward to buy the equity of various governments are inextricably linked with a family, and this family is the giant Osme family group on the earth!
