"Commissioner Lin, this and this...... I always felt like it was a joke. ”

Wu Yi, the current chairman and CEO of United Mining, stood backstage at the press conference, still hesitating to go up at this time.

"Lao Wu, this is originally the planned demand of the United Mining Company, and the account is also from here, you are the CEO, you are sure that you are up, I am just a director.

Hurry, we're all waiting down there. ”

Lin Ju pushed Wu Yi backstage as he spoke, and then trotted to the side of the venue to hide as low-key as possible.

In addition to well-known domestic and foreign journalists, the ambassadors of the permanent members of the Council were notified, and the total number of participants exceeded 100, and the level of the people who were ready to make the appearance was also very high.

Almost all the reporters and others who attended the press conference arrived more than two hours in advance because the theme of the conference was so unbelievable.

I saw that the background board of the black theme of the press conference reads:

"United Mining Yushu No. 1 Mining Site Fusion Blasting Unit Procurement and Bidding Announcement Conference"

Fusion blasting device, isn't this a hydrogen bomb?!

A few days ago, when the Aeronautical Development Commission set off a wave of hydrogen bomb mining, although the whole world was also discussing the ground, everyone didn't pay attention to it, and it was just all kinds of hype around the topic.

But when United Mining really started sending out invitations, everyone's reaction was surprisingly unanimous: You are really here.

The existence of United Mining itself is a big news, so almost all the parties who received the invitation letter have come over, and no matter what the outcome is, this time it will definitely get big news.

The ambassadors of the four countries were specially arranged to sit together, making wonderful eye contact with each other, speculating on various possibilities.

Although the invitation letter is printed by United Mining, the level of the person who can inform them is not the same.

The discussion of more than a hundred people made the venue noisy, and Wu Yi immediately stopped focusing on him when he appeared.

Although the latter has also seen many big scenes, he felt uncomfortable at this time, and after standing still, he cast inexplicable glances at several people in the audience.

It's crazy, it's crazy, it's definitely not something that the people of the Aviation Development Commission can call the shots, and it can only be said that the top and bottom are blinded by the rhetoric of the aerospace mouth, and they are crazy.

Thinking like this, Wu Yi still waved his hand to silence people first, cleared his throat and went straight to the point with as seriousness as possible:

"Through the ten-day Tianmu-2 reconnaissance mission and ground analysis, our company has obtained a large amount of new data on the geological environment and resource development of the moon, which is a major achievement of human exploration outside the earth and has milestone significance.

……

In order to develop and utilize the lunar resources more rationally, our company has decided to start the construction of the Yushu No. 1 base and mining farm in an all-round way from 2018.

Wu Yi paused for a moment, but continued with an unchanged face:

"To make more rational use of the achievements of human science and technology development and broaden the civilian application field of nuclear energy, it has been decided to use a cleaner and safer fusion blasting device for mine development, and the external bidding is hereby renewed:

We issue a purchase order for fusion blasting devices to any legally qualified company or institution in the world, with an initial intention to include 15 to 20 explosive devices of the TNT equivalent level of 10 million to 20 million tons, and require them to be delivered within 8 months.

This tender is only for blasting devices, and will be used under supervision in the field of legitimate peaceful resource development, bidders need to contact the company according to official channels, accept joint bids from individuals, organizations and institutions, the specific procurement scale and funds will be announced after the transaction is concluded.

In addition, United Mining Development Co., Ltd. has obtained the procedures and qualification certificates in the relevant fields, and is hereby informed. ”

The people below listened attentively to every word of him, not wanting to miss the useful information at all, until Wu Yi signaled that he had finished speaking and could ask questions, and then suddenly burst out and raised his hand desperately.

The first opportunity, Wu Yi decided to hand it over to the dog to.

Huaxin: "Hello spokesperson, we all know that nuclear bombs are very radioactive, will detonating them on the moon cause serious pollution problems?" ”

Wu Yi: "Nuclear bombs are divided into fission-based atomic bombs and fusion-based hydrogen bombs, the main reaction of the latter is almost no nuclear radiation that can be retained for a long time, and it can also clean up the fission-type radiation to a certain extent, which is a kind of bomb that is recognized as very clean, even cleaner than using a large number of conventional explosives.

And nuclear bombs have been used in engineering since the last century, and the Union has a precedent for using atomic bombs to build reservoirs, the radiation residue of which is reduced to normal levels within a year, enough for a person to swim in them, and much cleaner hydrogen bombs do not need to worry about these problems.

In addition, because there is no atmosphere, the lunar environment has a very small range, and the power is difficult to propagate, so the explosion range can be controlled in a certain area; Moreover, the space environment is very deep, and there is a very strong radiation problem, and the hydrogen bomb can even be ignored compared with it. ”

The main thing about the news agency was to cooperate with the public to answer some elementary questions and give a good start, and the reporter sat down after listening.

Wu Yi is looking for his next target...... That's it, TASS!

The Mao Mei reporter, who was still in the expiration date, stood up and said hello, with a raging fire burning in her eyes:

"Is the United Mining Company preparing to purchase hydrogen bombs from the world? Your country also has manufacturing capabilities. ”

Wu Yi: "We are a commercial space development company, everything has to follow the laws of business, there are five countries on the earth that have a hydrogen bomb reasonably, so we send a tender to everyone to choose the most suitable plan, and we also accept multiple suppliers. ”

"Then will you buy the Tsar's hydrogen bomb? It has 50 million tons of equivalent, which is more powerful. ”

Medvedev, who was in the front row, turned his head directly to look at the female reporter and corrected loudly:

"It's not 50 million tons, it's 170 million tons equivalent, and its complete body has 170 million tons of equivalent!"

TASS: "......"

Wu Yi: "......"

Others: "......"

Lin Ju stood by the wall and held his forehead, how did he feel that the focus was not right?

Wu Yi knew that this press conference was destined to be messy, but he could only answer:

"This requires the relevant parties to bid, not a question that can be answered on the spot, and whether the specific winning bid needs to be strictly approved, good next."

The BBC reporter took the microphone excitedly:

"Mr. Wu, has your company considered the issue of using hydrogen bombs against the International Space Convention? Is this a breach of the international order, or is your country trying to deploy nuclear weapons in space in violation of the Convention? ”

Wu Yi: "The International Space Convention stipulates that nuclear weapons cannot be deployed, and the fusion blasting device we need is only a tool used in mining sites, and it will not pose a security threat to anyone, and it has no intention of undermining the international order, let alone violating the convention!"

And the belt is also a country that legally owns the fusion device, and we also accept bids. ”

“……”

The whole afternoon was spent in Wu Yi's non-stop drinking water and answering questions, and the press conference was forced to be postponed for two hours to deal with the reporters.

Wu Yi, who already felt a little numb in her calves, pointed to the last reporter, and then a female reporter with bulging buckteeth stood up and accused angrily:

"We resolutely oppose the use of hydrogen explosives in any situation and anywhere, resolutely, against!"

The Edo Shimbun people were finally escorted out by the security guards, and then several people in charge of the nuclear industry in China came up to the platform together with the main personnel of the Aviation Development Commission, which was the end of the press conference.

But none of the four embassy personnel in the audience moved, knowing that more information would be revealed later.
