Next to the conference table, Wu Yuankang, the director of the space agency, coughed lightly and interjected: "Space travel is a relatively risky thing at present, if the prince has concerns about our space capabilities, we can arrange for astronauts to come over for inspection."

After a slight pause, he looked at Prince Faisal with a smile: "As for you, Prince, to carry out space travel activities, objectively speaking, we don't recommend it very much, after all, this is a risky operation."

For Wu Yuankang, he represents the country of China, and Prince Faisal makes such a request, which in his opinion is indeed a bit too risky.

Although the space navigation technology of the space shuttle Xinghai is quite mature at present, space travel is a very risky thing after all.

And if an existence at the level of a prince has an unexpected situation in the process of space travel, it will be a major blow to the cooperation and relationship between China and Saudi Arabia.

If he could, Wu Yuankang naturally wanted to refuse the other party's request.

He even put his name on the excuse that he had concerns about space capabilities.

But obviously, the other side is not so easy to be persuaded.

Listening to Director Wu Yuankang's words, Prince Faisal shook his head excitedly: "No! No！ No！」

"I believe in your country's space technology and Professor Xu's ability, and I am looking forward to this cooperation and going into outer space."

"Moreover, space travel is the foundation of cooperation on the Lunar Biosphere Project, and I need to understand your country's true strength in the space field before I can feel comfortable investing in the Lunar Biosphere Project."

Prince Faisal's excited appearance almost makes people think that he is an avid fan of space exploration.

But for him, space travel doesn't have to be so crazy.

He is indeed looking forward to space travel, but more to pave the way for another collaboration to come.

The same is true for cooperation with China on the lunar biosphere project.

For some things that are circulating in the outside world, sometimes, unless you personally feel it once, it is difficult to believe what others say.

If China's space shuttle Xinghai is really as legendary, it can carry people to space like an ordinary civil airliner, perhaps, they can deepen their cooperation a little more in the future.

As for safety, to be honest, he's not really worried.

Not to mention the rest, his identity is here, as long as the other party agrees to this request, then they will definitely do their best to protect their lives.

It sounds like a bit of a rogue, but that's not the case with state-to-state or people-to-people cooperation.

......

On the other side, listening to Prince Faisal's planning of the requirements for space travel on the basis of cooperation in the lunar biosphere, Wu Yuankang was a little depressed.

What is this bearded prince doing, he has to go to outer space in person?

Such a high-stakes thing that Red Bull sponsored him?

Thinking about it, Wu Yuankang's thoughts drifted to the other side.

I heard that the price of Virgin Galactic's first space tour" ticket is 350,000 meters, and more than 500 people around the world have booked it, including Hollywood stars, business tycoons and other well-known figures.

Sometimes he really can't understand what these local tyrants think, spending millions, just for a space trip?

However, speaking of which, space travel is indeed very marketable in the future, and Huaguo is already working on the layout of this aspect.

After all, there is a prerequisite for excellent technology, and there is no reason to radiate it to other fields with it as the core.

As for Prince Faisal's request......

After thinking about it for a while, Wu Yuankang decided to delay for a while and report the situation to the top management to make a decision.

After all, this is no longer an ordinary space job, involving a prince of Saudi Arabia, the core of the Middle East Commonwealth, if space travel goes well, it is naturally perfect.

But if something unexpected happens in the process

In addition, it will have a significant impact on the cooperation and relations between the two sides.

After thinking for a while, Wu Yuankang raised his head, and just as he was about to speak, Xu Chuan's voice came from his side.

"I'm a guest from afar, since Prince Faisal has requested, the Space Shuttle Xinghai will carry out a replenishment mission to the Tiangong space station in exactly two days, and I will be the host to accompany the prince to take a look."

In the reception room, Xu Chuan said with a smile.

As soon as the words fell, on the side, Wu Yuankang and Weng Yunzong from the Aerospace Research Institute retorted in unison.

"No!"

"It's too risky!"

Xu Chuan glanced at the two of them and said with a smile: "It's a guest from afar, since Prince Faisal's request can be fulfilled, as long as he supports the construction of the biosphere project, space travel is not too difficult work."

After a slight pause, he looked at Prince Faisal on the other side, and continued: "However, space travel is risky, and this needs to be made clear to the prince in advance.

Xu Chuan knew very well what Wu Yuankang and the people on the diplomatic side were against, and what they were opposed to was not Prince Faisal's request for space travel, but his running up as the host.

As he himself said, space travel is risky, and neither Wu Yuankang nor the top brass will agree to him going to space, at least not at this stage.

But for Xu Chuan, it has always been his dream to travel to outer space, the moon, Mars, and even further afield.

Just take this opportunity to go to outer space first to have a look and lay the foundation, otherwise how will he go to the moon and Mars in the future?

As for the offer to accompany Prince Faisal as a host, it was only an excuse.

The more core reason is that he wants to go up and have a look.

Xu Chuan still admitted this, but he just took the opportunity of Prince Faisal to ask for space travel.

Although the state is also for his safety, he is quite adventurous in his bones.

Sometimes, people should always think about themselves, and they have to live for themselves once or twice, right?

If he had chosen to seek stability, he would not have chosen to go abroad again to study mathematics at Princeton after he had been reborn seven or eight years ago.

After all, the scholars in his mind have long been enough for him to reach the pinnacle of Chinese academia.

But he didn't, and in order to break through his limit, he still took the risk and chose to study at Princeton for two and a half years.

This led to the breakthrough of the NS equation and the realization of controllable nuclear fusion technology.

As for now, space travel does have a certain risk.

However, this risk is not big in Xu Chuan's view, and it is not even as likely as the car driving on the road and leaving the road.

After all, the space shuttle Xinghai has carried out double-digit missions from unmanned to manned so far, and there have been no problems.

.......

In the reception room, Wu Yuankang and Weng Yunzong finally did not persuade Xu Chuan, so they could only report the matter after hurriedly ending the negotiation meeting.

In their view, the cooperation on the lunar biosphere project negotiated with the Middle East is far less important than this.

As for Prince Faisal's space travel, it has long been left behind by them.

On the other side, the capital, Fuxing Road.

In an office in the headquarters building of the industrial information company, the voice of one person sounded so deafening that it almost shattered the glass.

"What did you say?!"

"Nonsense!"

"It's too messy!"

"Won't you persuade me?"

"Okay, I see."

Hanging up the phone in a hurry, the somewhat head-headed man pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and after instructing the assistant, he walked out of the office quickly without even caring about the unfinished documents on the table.

Soon, on the other side,

A small island in the North Sea.

"Are you saying that Academician Xu wants to accompany Prince Faisal on the Saudi side on a space trip aboard the Star Sea?"

On a small island in the North Sea, the person who was dealing with the official business in his hand was holding a pen and looked at the industrial information chief who reported the news to him with a surprised and blank expression.

After receiving the news of Wu Yuankang's report, Liang Hongyi, who was in the industry and information industry, hurried over from the Fuxing Road to report the situation to the person in front of him.

He nodded with a wry smile and said, "Well, the news that was just reported by the space agency ten minutes ago is that he is going to go up with the Xinghai that will be executed to replenish supplies for the Tiangong space station in three days."

After confirming the truth of the news, the man held his pen and fell silent.

After a while, he finally asked, "Didn't you persuade you?"

Liang Hongyi sighed: "Why didn't I persuade him, when the Space Bureau reported to me, he said that he was about to cry with his thighs and call his mother, but he couldn't persuade him, he insisted that as the host, he should do his best to accompany the prince who was called what is the name of the landlord."

For a while, he was tossed by Xu Chuan and forgot the name of Prince Faisal of the Middle East.

The corners of the man's mouth twitched, and he fell silent again.

What kind of friendship of the hell landlord, it is clear that he wants to go up by himself, right?

He has been dealing with Xu Chuan for so long, and his character is not clear there.

When did the friendship of landlords become such a sophisticated thing in his consideration?

Not to mention that Prince Faisal wants to take the Star Sea for space travel, but he wants to jump from outer space, if he is not interested, he probably won't care.

It was clear that Prince Faisal's space travel had stirred his inner thoughts.

On the other side, on the side of the industrial information coward, his hair was already all white, and Liang Hongyi only felt that his head was big.

He took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes, and said with a headache, "You said he wasn't fooling around, aerospace technology is not fully mature....... Alas."

At this moment, Yuan Zhouli, the head of the Science and Technology Department, also rushed over.

Looking at Liang Hongyi in the room, he was slightly stunned for a moment, and said hello: "Old Liang, you are also here, just right, help think of a way."

Liang Hongyi turned his head to look over, and after seeing that it was him, he nodded and said hello, looked at Yuan Zhouli with an anxious look, and asked tentatively, "Academician Xu's matter?"

Hearing this, Yuan Zhouli was stunned again, and then asked, "You also know?"

Liang Hongyi nodded and sighed, "I came here to report this."

The corners of Yuan Zhouli's mouth moved, and he said with a headache, "What do you say about this...... Do you want to stop him from going up?"

Liang Hongyi: "It's okay to stop it, but I'm afraid that if I stop it this time, he will sneak up next time without saying hello, after all, the Xinghai is in his hands, and no one in the Xinghai Research Institute can take care of him."

"At his age, I'm afraid he can do anything on impulse, and this time he brought it up......

Yuan Zhouli: "......."

Hearing this, the person behind the desk also sighed and had a headache.

There was silence in the room.

This one finally shook his head and said, "Forget it, let him go, but inform the subordinates, be sure to make confidentiality and security preparations, and notify the national defense side to make corresponding preparations.......

As Liang Hongyi said, at Xu Chuan's age, they stopped him this time, and next time they might sneak up without even saying hello, and then they won't even have a place to say.

It's a head-scratching ......
