Chapter 483: Everywhere
It took nearly a month to complete, and Chen Nian finally completed the "introductory" study in the field of biological genes, but although it is said to be an entry, in fact, his current level is about the same as that of a high school student who has just entered college.
Have a certain understanding, can understand the logic of the paper, but understand the role of new technology, but have no concept of its implementation mechanism and research and development process.
However, it was enough to just do this, and it was enough for him to start analysis and start getting involved in the field of gene editing.
Therefore, Chen Nian did not hesitate to start the project, and with the intervention of the China Democratic Development Office, all relevant departments quickly organized and brought together all the industry elites in the form of a "velvet group".
Facts and historical experience have proved that although such an organizational form may have a certain risk of leakage and a certain problem of uneven distribution of resources, it can reach the highest level in terms of efficiency and comprehensive benefits.
Thus, the intense pre-project preparation began.
At the same time, a meeting in London has also begun.
The meeting was widely reported, and although it was "informal" in form, in reality, it represented the attitude of the whole world to the future
In a spacious and bright studio, the well-known critic Qin Shuxian led him to sit in the main seat, and opposite him was a four-person expert team composed of the United States, Germany, Britain and France.
The two sides sat across a long table opposite each other, and before the official start began, the so-called "friendly exchange" had been completed according to the usual practice, and the main topic began.
The first to speak, of course, was Qin Shuxian.
He first expounded on the current development of relations between the parties, the current situation of various countries, the changes in the international economic and political forms, and the possible direction of the future from various angles.
Of course, what he said the most was the positive changes that are taking place in the world as a whole driven by new technologies.
Although this speech is very official and formal, from the perspective of the listener, you can really feel the willingness of Qin Shuxian to express "active cooperation" on her behalf.
After his speech, the US side made a similar statement, but to be honest, no matter what they say, they will not be heard.
The overall content is nothing more than some evolution of the content of Huaxia.
It highlighted the development potential of the United States, the important role of the United States in the stability of international relations, the power of the United Nations, the explanation of the Cuban issue, and the understanding of the "coalition" operation organized by China.
It can be said that it is all cliché, if you use a sentence that Qin Shuxian often says to describe it, it is really like a resentful woman crying on the street, if you don't listen to it, you are afraid that something will happen, and it is annoying to hear it.
After finally surviving the long 20 minutes, the two sides exchanged views and finally entered the core and most concerned part of the talks.
In other words, it is a part of free discussion.
Qin Shuxian breathed a long sigh of relief and said:
"Guys, we actually know the basics, so there's no need to talk too much."
"Unlike any previous historical period, in the current period, the direction that the whole world will choose is extremely clear, there is no dispute, and there is no room for compromise."
"In the same way, the contradictions we face are clear and have a clear path to resolution."
"The fact that we are sitting here today actually shows that each side has the will to settle disputes and resolve contradictions, and there is no doubt that we, including the people of the world, appreciate this."
"Therefore, the focus of our discussion is not on those vain and lofty ideas and theories, but on the actual practice."
"So I'll be blunt and give my vision of the future."
"First, no country in the world needs to reduce its nuclear threat and reduce the number of nuclear weapons it holds."
"Second, all parties need to remove all unreasonable economic sanctions, lower trade barriers, and integrate into the international economic cycle."
"Third, all parties need to complete the decoupling from several disputed areas and commit to not engaging in related disputes."
"These are the three main development requirements, and how to implement them may need to be further observed, but the main line will definitely not change."
Hearing Qin Shuxian's words, Gu Ning, the US representative on the opposite side, nodded slowly, and then said:
"Mr. Qin, we all appreciate your directness and honesty. In fact, we have always been committed to promoting world peace and development, and although our approach may be different from yours, our goals are the same. ”
Gu Ning paused, looked at the other members, and continued: "Regarding your request, we need to have a more in-depth internal discussion, but I can also make a preliminary response first. ”
"Of course, it's a reasonable inference based on our current federal policy."
"First, on the issue of the nuclear threat, the United States has been a staunch supporter of the nuclear non-proliferation regime. The Federal Government must be willing to engage in discussions on nuclear disarmament and seek cooperation with all parties. But obviously, the Federation also needs to make sure that this does not compromise our own security. ”
"As we all know, Huaxia has made quite dazzling achievements in the development of unconventional weapons - this is not a compliment on me."
"Whether such an achievement is an opportunity or a threat to the world, no one can immediately say for sure."
"Based on this uncertainty, the issue of nuclear disarmament will be highly sensitive and complex, and I believe you can understand this."
"Understood."
Qin Shuxian nodded slightly, and then replied:
"This will be a long-term issue, and the parties will certainly not need to reach specific goals immediately, but the basic principles will not waver."
"Understood."
Guning continued:
"It can be said that all of us have reached a basic consensus on the first issue, which also represents everyone's vision for the future."
"Well, we can move on to the second question."
"Secondly, with regard to economic sanctions and trade barriers, in the past, we have always considered them to be effective means of maintaining international order and reacting to certain unfair economic practices. But now, the vast majority of us also understand the adverse effects that excessive sanctions can have on the international economy. ”
"Therefore, it has become a necessary step to look at the existing sanctions and make adjustments if necessary."
This sentence is actually an expression of agreement, so Qin Shuxian did not comment too much.
In fact, the real damage caused to the United States by the so-called trade barrier strategy has long been obvious to all, and even if no one mentions it, they will not be able to sustain it for long.
Stopping closure and embracing openness is the only correct path for development.
"Finally, on the issue of disputed areas, the United States has been involved in a number of regions before, but our purpose is to promote peace and stability there. However, there is also a need for a more in-depth dialogue on this point on how to achieve this goal more effectively. ”
"I mean, as far as I know, the federation is already thinking about reaching consensus on some of the major issues first, and that consensus is likely to take a short timeline."
Qin Shuxian nodded slightly and responded:
"You're very positive, and that's a good thing."
"In this case, I think all of us have the conditions for in-depth discussions and exchanges."
A smile appeared on his face, and then he said:
"In fact, before the show started, our biggest concern was that you were still judging the current reality by the same standards as before."
"If that's really the case, I'm afraid it's contrary to the original intention of this show."
"But well, your vision is at least developing."
As soon as these words were spoken, a bitter smile immediately appeared on Gu Ning's face.
"Developing Vision"?
To put it bluntly, I guess I learned to compromise.
In a sense, this is actually a shame, because in the three hundred years of American history, there have been many defeats, but there are really not many compromises.
He didn't know what to answer for a while, so he had to say:
"A new era has arrived, and we are also pursuing development."
"That's a good thing."
Qin Shuxian leaned back on the sofa and continued:
"So, maybe we should look forward to the execution strategy next?"
"Of course, just like the purpose of this show, we speak freely, but only one expectation, and our purpose is to let everyone see our expectations."
"That's right."
Gu Ning nodded again.
He knew that the other side would definitely make a very demanding request as a gimmick for this meeting.
But that's okay, it's an informal show, no matter how harsh, there's no need to get angry or argue.
It's good to listen, but it's not up to you to decide anyway.
——
However, what he didn't expect was that Huaxia's views were beyond the scope of what he understood to be "harsh".
"I believe that in order to ensure world peace, the number of nuclear weapons retained by the major powers should be reduced to less than 200 within three years, with a total yield of less than 50 million tons."
Gu Ning was directly stunned.
Less than 200 pieces, with a total equivalent of 50 million tons?
Isn't this a direct attempt to completely deprive the nuclear counterattack capability??
Now he does not have the feeling of being "insulted" at all, but is purely confused.
Such a statement. Is there really a need to bring it up?
Looking at his expression, Qin Shuxian smiled slightly and continued to explain:
"The goal I'm talking about is certainly not just for any one side."
"In fact, the goal of all of us as a human being is to push the world out of the era of nuclear bondage and into the era of technological bondage."
"This is a very basic judgment, for a long time in the future, mankind will enter the process of technological hurricane, full exchange and cooperation will become the minimum basis, if any country decouples from international development, it will be completely left behind the civilized society in a very short event."
"It's a new means of making peace, and it's a safer one."
"If this can be used as an alternative, then why should we use the primitive and dangerous scheme of checks and balances?"
"Frankly, if either side can come up with a reasonable nuclear disarmament plan, other countries will follow suit-—— there is no doubt about it, openly and practically."
Gu Ning looked at Qin Shuxian with a serious expression, and the other party's expression was extremely sincere.
After a long time, he finally asked:
"What about the others? What do you think? It can't just be between two countries. ”
"You think so too? Or is there a consensus on this? ”
"That's right, we've come to a consensus-—— it's not just us, it's everyone."
Qin Shuxian replied without hesitation.
"Got it, we're the last one."
"We're the late ones."
Havana, Cuba.
Tao Bo watched the last transport plane take off, and the strength in his body seemed to be drained, making him feel an inexplicable sense of weakness.
He glanced back at López, who was standing aside, and said:
"This is the last group, and when they leave, it basically means that the involvement of countries in Cuban affairs has completely ended."
"After that, you need to stabilize the situation as soon as possible and repair the damage caused by the war."
"Of course, the most important thing is to make full use of the opportunity of this ceiling being lifted and try to develop the country as much as possible - well, this is not something that you need to consider as a military attaché, I just talk about it casually."
Hearing his words, López hurriedly took two steps forward, and then replied sincerely:
"As long as it is a suggestion you make, I will seriously consider it."
"If it's not my job, then I'll find the people who really need to be responsible."
"We've been given such a historic opportunity that it's impossible not to cherish it."
Taubo smiled and didn't answer.
The two stared at the transport plane that gradually disappeared into the sky, but they did not withdraw their eyes.
——
It seems that they are all looking forward to something new to come.
The waiting time was long, and López couldn't help but take the initiative to speak again:
"Mr. Tao Bo, will the navigation of the Nantianmen air platform around the world become normalized in the future?"
"I mean, in a non-wartime situation, are we able to."
Before he could finish his words, suddenly, a bright light appeared in the sky.
It is like the first ray of sunshine at dawn, but it is far more dazzling than the rising sun.
The eyes of the two shifted with the bright light, and they saw a huge ship slowly descending in the air.
This is the "Nantianmen" space carrier, which is in the sky over Havana, like a new star bursting into everyone's field of vision.
López's eyes were full of amazement, his breath was short, his lips moved slightly, but he couldn't find the right words for a moment.
The same was true of the soldiers around the airport, who stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky one by one with an expression of disbelief on their faces.
"Mr. Tauber!"
López finally broke the silence, with an unconcealed excitement in his voice.
"It's really coming!"
"Your promise has been fully fulfilled!"
"It's not just a symbol of military power, it's."
López suddenly couldn't speak, because he realized that at this moment, all language was barren.
The Nantianmen in the air seemed to slowly lower in altitude, which made its full picture clearer.
This flying fortress, with its unparalleled dignity and strength, heralds the dawn of a new era.
After a few minutes, López finally regained his voice.
He took a deep breath and said to Tauber:
"I think I already have the answer to my question."
"Nantianmen. It's more than just a ship. ”
"It's a symbol and a herald of the future."
"So, it's going to be everywhere, right?"
"That's right."
Tauber finally nodded.
"You may not see it again, but it's there."
