- The impact of United Technologies' second shake-up continues to this day. This is an upright cultural and conceptual output that maximizes the sunny side of human nature while using various means to limit the dark side. Combining the scientific research results of the Human Genome Research Institute, the Weizhou Academy of Social Sciences has formulated an assimilation plan with a cycle of 20 years, which will affect an entire generation of Australians. The purpose is to completely assimilate other parts of Australia and spread Weizhou¡¯s ideas and culture to Every corner of Australia.
Scientific research shows that animals that can establish stable social structures have higher intelligence. This is true for both animals and humans. It can also be seen from the observation of different human groups that the average IQ of the same nation in a relatively stable system is slightly higher than that in a chaotic social system. The longer the development time, the more points the system brings.
From the statistical results, about 80% of people have similar innate intelligence levels, and top smart people and fools are only a small part. The intelligence differences between people are affected and restricted by many factors, and education and living environment have a great impact.
Putting aside other factors, from a purely material basis, there is no absolute connection between the size of the human brain and the level of intelligence. The biggest mystery of the human brain lies in nerve cells and the interconnection between nerve cells. Regular use of the brain can make the brain nerve structure more complex, promote the enhancement and development of brain function, and make people smarter. People who are unwilling to use their brains will become dumber and more likely to be brainwashed.
IQ is mainly determined by innateness, and the brain microstructure of the offspring of people with high IQ is more complex than that of ordinary people. Children whose parents are both highly educated are generally smarter. For example, the four children of Zhou Qisen and Han Shumei are all very good at reading and there is no mutation. From the current research data analysis, the Li Zhuang family has six of the twelve children who can be considered top smart people; the Sun Guobao family has a lower proportion, only four. It is probably related to his individual variation, and there are few outstanding ones in his ancestors.
Relative brain capacity and brain microstructure are the basis. Acquired education and character development are closely related to career success. If there is a mismatch between expertise and character, it will hinder your career.
In short, this field is extremely sophisticated, but the company's current research level can determine the basic direction, but it does not understand the complex interactions for the time being.
The Wesson Academy of Social Sciences has obtained some quantifiable research results and applied them to the daily teaching and management of Sunway Education Group, with good results. The second generation of top researchers is generally relatively normal. About 70% can inherit the IQ of their parents, and their emotional intelligence is generally higher than the average. There are many who are excellent in both aspects. There are very few "weirds" among minors who can be seen everywhere in Wisconsin. For example, Harris is neurotic, and his three children are all normal. The open education system promotes the improvement of group IQ and EQ levels, and psychological problems common in other social systems are accidental here.
During the first adjustment, the company's management formulated three major strategic projects, referred to as "Basic", "Assimilation" and "Sail". "Basic" refers to improving the cultural heritage, economic strength and military strength of the company and later Weizhou. Cohesion, money and fists are indispensable. The goal of "assimilation" is firstly the Australian mainland, secondly the underdeveloped areas, thirdly the differentiation of the main forces, and finally the formation of the Earth Federation.
The "basic" goal is easy to achieve. This strategic project takes a twenty-year cycle and will eventually form a highly developed area with a population of no less than 200 million with high IQs, fully covering Weizhou, Western Australia and the bordering areas.
"The ultimate goal of "assimilation" is the farthest away, and some researchers even claim that it will never be achieved because the differences between nations and races are not small, which can easily cause the project to go awry. Australia has a small population, with Wisconsin and Western Australia accounting for half of Australia's population. This is work that can be accomplished within the same country. Cultural export that is not for the purpose of control has greatly improved Weizhou's situation, improved Australia's economic efficiency, and reduced Weizhou's dependence on foreign trade.
The second and third stages of the "assimilation" project are inseparable but relatively independent. International exchanges with the purpose of "win-win" are carried out in underdeveloped areas in an orderly manner under the protection of the iron fist of the security system. Africa and Latin America are the focus, and the company helps them improve their agricultural standards, develop education, and build various industrial facilities. On the one hand, this strategy is to squeeze the energy of big forces, and on the other hand, it is to ensure the smooth flow of the company's business channels.
The company has nearly 200,000 employees from Russia, some of whom later returned to Russia to start their own businesses. They have become a huge force and are called the "Weizhou School" by the Russians. They have continued the company's philosophy and have a good reputation among the people. Needless to say, China's allies are increasing day by day, and the South is recovering, but it is too noisy and some policies cannot be implemented. All provinces have significantly increased investment in education, and future growth is expected.
Compared with the somewhat distant ¡°assimilation¡± project, the ¡°set sail¡± project is much more realistic. The first stage is to establish a complete aerospace research and development institution.??Industrial facilities have been completed; the goal of the second phase is to establish a lunar base and multiple space stations to make asa self-sufficient and launch large-scale exploration spacecraft throughout the solar system; the most important goal of the third phase is to establish a complete Mars base and complete special Planetary exploration missions include Ganymede, which has a magnetic circle; the fourth phase is to complete the construction of the Ganymede base and the Titan "Titan" base, and manned the two satellites to see if they can Obtain evidence of human origins. The fifth stage is to establish a Pluto base and unmanned mining bases on various planets in the solar system to prepare for interstellar voyages.
Chen Deqi gave the "Sail" project another name, "Solar System Walking", which means that humans can freely fly from one planet to another in the solar system without using tricky methods, such as the gravity commonly used by detectors. Boost. Manned spacecraft are different from probes. The longer it takes, the more energy the life support system requires, which is not cost-effective.
The moon is a natural springboard for humans to fly to other planets in the solar system, which can save fuel and reduce costs. As major forces have announced that they will establish permanent bases on the moon, a space craze is spreading everywhere, and topics about aliens and videos of flying saucers have begun to appear frequently on the Internet.
Many people in United Technologies Corporation are keen on manufacturing saucer-shaped aircraft, purely for entertainment. The unmanned saucer-shaped aircraft once circled Australia and returned to the test site, causing a sensation along the way. Later, Canberra was dissuaded from playing similar games. This kind of propaganda based on natural phenomena or flight tests driven by commercial interests can be seen from the birth of the word "flying saucer". Its development has now deviated from the spirit of science and has become a way for businessmen to take advantage of ordinary people's curiosity to make profits. tool.
Aliens are not so stupid. Earth's technology has developed so far that they still dare to fly everywhere in the sky. In Weizhou alone, there are ten super powerful laser cannons. No matter what kind of advanced technology it uses, a small flying saucer cannot escape. A fatal blow. Among the three types of directed energy weapons, including lasers, particle beams and microwave beams, Earth's technology has developed to a very high level. After fully protective metal exoskeletons become popular, lasers and high-power gunpowder weapons will be used by individual soldiers. Main battle weapon.
As for particle beam weapons, because the United Nations has treaty restrictions that strictly prohibit countries from deploying high-energy particle weapons in space, there has been no force to conduct public particle beam weapons tests, and they are all secretive. The company's proton impactor, whose name comes from the game, is a type of particle beam weapon. The project team employees didn't know whether they were lazy or were poisoned by games and comics, so they chose this name, but the company's senior management still agreed to it after receiving the report. The name is based on the macs mecha combat system. Although the official name of this thing in the files is the ion cannon, everyone is accustomed to calling it the proton impact cannon.
Highly powerful weapons are all secrets hidden behind them. WLMs and ASA¡¯s research is very comprehensive, but there are still some things that they dare not let other forces and the public know. After all, playing with weapons that kill people goes against the spirit of the founding of the company. In contrast, the preparation and construction of the lunar base is a topic that major media follow every day.
Amid great expectations, one month passed by an extremely long time. The company's management liaison meeting approved WLES's proposal to build a space solar power plant, and established an Australian space solar power plant company abbreviated as aaespp to raise shares. Unexpectedly Popular abroad.
Seeing that so many people were interested, Chen Deqi did not object anymore. He could not struggle with money. Asa is still in debt and has been supported by the headquarters and other departments. Andreev was overjoyed by the astronomical amount of one billion gold coupons. He wrote a proposal to Zhou Qisen to establish a lunar development company and list it on the Australian Stock Exchange to raise funds, mainly in mining, tourism and agriculture. projects.
The asa astronaut center has just completed the first version of the controlled ecological life support system (celss). The lunar greenhouse was jointly developed by asa and a number of research institutes and is ready to set off with the mea11mc spacecraft. Li Zhuang's guess was correct. The final official name of the Moon-Earth spacecraft was the mea1 series, and the radio call signs were the names of Zhinao ae9919 and ae99110.
The main brains of the lunar base project are space versions miniaturized by wai991 according to the space environment, weighing about 220 kilograms. LTA will add three cabins, the lunar energy cabin, the mineral cabin and the food cabin, using ae9911 as the main control brain. The intelligent brains allocated to the lunar space station are ae9912 and ae9915, and two astronauts will be stationed in the long term.
The location of ASA¡¯s first base is determined to be at the south pole of the moon, and the goal is to establish three bases, Antarctica, Sea of ??Tranquility and North Pole. The name and radio call sign of the Antarctic base were taken by the city of Melbourne. The official name of the base is Little Melbourne and the call sign is lmb. The main control computers of the base are ae9916 and ae9917. The control system of the nuclear power plant is relatively independent. Only when the astronauts are unable to handle an emergency, the two computers will intervene.
The energy configuration is a concentrated solar power plant and a super battery pack, and the initial energy source is an isotope battery pack andThe battery pack and the backup power supply are small space nuclear power plants with a conversion efficiency of 25%, with full consideration of safety protection. The moon is rich in uranium and thorium, and the space nuclear power plant will be the main power source for the lunar mineral refining factory. Therefore, the Nuclear Fission Reactor Laboratory designed a variety of nuclear power plants, initially as the main power source for the refining factory, and later as a deuterium-helium triple nuclear fusion reactor and pure helium triple fusion reactor starting power supply.
Space nuclear power plants have four codenames based on different output powers: 200 kilowatt anp12h, 1,000 kilowatt anp11k, 10,000 kilowatt anp110k and 50,000 kilowatt anp150k, each with different uses.
The ground contact center located in Xinwei City built an independent building for the lunar base project. The main control brain is wai9918. It is still a big thing and has no miniaturization.
Nearly 200,000 people in the company are working on the lunar base project, and the supporting facilities are complete. The idea of ??establishing a permanent lunar base has been in mind from the beginning, and the preparations have been completed. What is shocking is that after ASA announced its official plan, NASA, ESA, RSA, CNNA and JAXA all defined territories nearby, less than 200 kilometers away from each other. You can reach the Little Melbourne base in a short time by taking a six-legged lunar rover. The CNSA base is the closest, only 80 kilometers away.
The long-awaited day has finally arrived. The moon is bright, the stars are sparse, and the weather is good. It¡¯s a good time to do some serious work. The auditorium near the Xinwei Space Center was packed with nearly 100,000 people. This was the result of the second selection, otherwise millions of people would have come to join in the fun.
The family members of the company¡¯s executives were all excluded. Even so, nearly 30,000 people, including project team leaders and key employees with sufficient security levels, were present. The others were the Canberra delegation, state delegations, military delegations, delegations from research institutes involved in the project, media delegations, etc. People with slightly flawed security clearances were all turned away. The ASA Security Department, the Army's Xinwei Military Base and the Xinwei City Police Station are all on high alert to guard against possible accidents. The people sitting in the stands are the essence of Australia. Once something goes wrong, it will be no small matter.
The six astronauts on this mission have all arrived at the LTA space station on the vss spacecraft. The commander is Ji Chengjun, and the deputy commander is Nathan Moore. The four astronauts who will land on the moon are Hubert Berg, Gao Chengjie, Dan Cape and Kusunoki Shozo.
"Haha, whose idea was this? It's a United Nations." Li Zhuang said to Zhou Qisen with a smile.
Needless to say, Ji Chengjun is a well-known celebrity, Moore is from Citi, Berg is from Germany, Gao Chengjie is from China, and Cape is from Australia. Kusunoki Shozo has been considered again and again, but he is indeed excellent and extremely loyal to the company; his father is an old employee of Wesson Technology who joined the company in the third year after it was founded. He cannot be turned away because of politics. After all, the company There are nearly 70,000 Japanese employees there.
"Haha, we want to be the United Nations. It is best to become the leading country of the United Nations. Their base is close to us. They must have considered that if something goes wrong, they can take refuge here. After all, we have the most complete protection facilities. , and the largest scale." Zhou Qisen mentioned the choices of the major forces.
NASA has landed on the moon twice in these years, while Jaxa, rsa, cnsa and esa have only succeeded once. Manned landing on the moon is expensive, and you can't just mess around without a clear purpose. Jaxa failed to land on the moon for the second time and almost couldn't come back. The third rocket launch failed and the escape system was not designed well. Two astronauts were killed on the spot.
The scale of ASA¡¯s moon landing this time was very large. Due to the special personnel composition, it attracted as much attention as Apollo¡¯s first landing on the moon. Mainstream media from various countries sent people to the launch site. The space docking in this operation is frequent, far exceeding the plans adopted by major forces. Theoretically, the risks are very high, but ASA is not afraid. If it cannot break through the complex space docking, the transportation of energy and rare metals to the moon will become a problem. Empty words. The lunar exploration robot has fully understood the geology, geography and space conditions near the Little Melbourne base. The lunar space station has sufficient supplies, so there is no need to worry about problems.
This time the Mea1 spacecraft is called Mea11mc. It weighs about 500 tons excluding the nuclear power module. It consists of a conventional power module, a command module, a rescue module, a lunar module, a living module, a cargo module and additional sections. The living module has two separate components, each weighing 100 tons. The lunar test greenhouse was operated by nwww.piaotia.comea11mc in early July. Each cabin contains only a small amount of fuel for orbit change and docking. The required fuel was transported to space by a VA-class spacecraft, including the nuclear-powered propulsion module of the mea11mc spacecraft. What was launched today is the living module, the last component of mea11mc, which is the foundation of the lunar base. Without this, astronauts will not be able to stay on the moon for a long time. It will take enough time to verify the detection results of the robot.
"Are we taking too big a step? This is the first time we send people to the moon. If something goes wrong, we will become the laughing stock of other institutions." Li Zhuang felt uneasy and couldn't help but ask Andreev, who was watching on the side. .
Andreev did not immediately express confidence and hesitatedAfter a long time, he said: "We have verified each module. It is unlikely that there will be a problem with the combination. Besides, they are all independent. Even if something goes wrong, the Lunar Space Station and the LTA Space Station can guarantee the safety of astronauts."
The launch success rate of asa is extremely high. This time it uses the most mature nwr-234 rocket. It has been successfully launched ten times without failure. It can directly send the living module to the vicinity of the space station and change orbit easily.
"I hope God will bless you!" Li Zhuang prayed secretly without saying anything. Even if the launch is successful, the subsequent complex docking and the operating conditions of the nuclear propulsion module need to be verified. Whether the attitude control system can control the huge spacecraft is also a question mark. Although Carnforth has repeatedly claimed that there is no problem with the design, as evidenced by the LTA space station, anyone with a little common sense knows that it cannot be completely equal. Maybe everyone was betting, but fortunately they didn't gamble with the lives of the astronauts. The design of the escape system was perfect.
As the countdown to launch approached, the scene fell into silence, except for the sound coming from the loudspeaker. The ignition went smoothly, no different from usual. Li Zhuang looked a little numb. The frequency of ASA's launches was very high. At its peak, it would launch three times a month. By then, the management was tired and didn't want to watch anymore.
The rocket-mounted camera and ground tracking system display the rocket's operating conditions on a huge LCD screen for everyone at the viewing platform to appreciate the entire flight process. ASA's densely populated satellites in space took pictures until the living module reached its destination, and then cut it off without further explanation. The docking was a secret.
??There is no passion after seeing too much, especially for laymen. Even the largest spacecraft in human history cannot arouse the interest of management unless everything goes well in the future.
Li Zhuang was about to leave when the Speaker came to the door and said, "Daniel, I heard Dr. Zhou mentioned the Lunar Development Company. Everyone is very interested. Don't you consider formally establishing such an organization? I believe the stock can be sold. Our family plans to subscribe for at least Five million gold coupons.¡±
"Ah?" The computer expert opened his mouth wide, a little stunned, "It's still a long way from making money on the moon base. It's all investment now. Aren't you worried about losing money?"
The speaker stroked his beard and smiled: "If we start making money, the stock price will definitely not be cheap. I believe that the moon base can make money. The space power plant project has easily raised 500 million gold coupons, which shows that everyone has confidence. There are not many good projects now. Lunar Development Corporation has a future.¡±
"Well, I will let the marketing department investigate. If it works, we can accept public participation. After all, we are in the space age now and cannot be compared with the past, haha." The computer expert frowned and decided to seriously consider his suggestion.
The next day, the management got the video of the docking in space. They were all sweating, but everything went smoothly and the attitude control system was running normally. The ASA spokesperson gave each reporter a set of official manuscripts, announcing that the docking was successful and the nuclear-powered propulsion module was successful. It is expected to arrive near the moon in two days.
Australia has had a week off, and people of all ages are watching the live broadcast, and Weizhou is no exception. Li Zhuang rarely spent time with his family and gave himself three days off. In the meantime, he went to the Measurement and Control Center once and had a phone call with Ji Chengjun.
"Boss, the lunar landing team has encountered a problem. There is a fierce debate about who will be the first to get out of the lunar landing module. Please give me an idea." Ji Chengjun's rich and pleasant baritone could not be heard in the sizzling radio sound. The master's specialty.
"Guessing, the old trick, I'm willing to admit defeat, haha." Li Zhuang's voice was a little loud, and Weizman next to him reminded him, "Boss, this is a public channel, don't talk nonsense."
"Why did I talk nonsense? This is the fairest way." The computer expert did not pay attention, so billions of TV viewers on the earth saw a devastating scene. Four astronauts gathered together to guess punches, and it was still in high definition. Digital broadcast.
When the instigator of all this walked out of the measurement and control center, Zhang Kai called and accused him: "Li Zhuang, what you did today is a bit outrageous. This is a serious occasion, how could you do such a funny thing? Look at the news on the Internet, They say we are unseemly and should at least be dignified."
"We are the sixth child. If we have any heroic words to say, I think this is good. It fully reveals the true side of human nature. Don't always use Armstrong's style to pretend to be cool!"
"Oh, I'm convinced. I hope those four guys won't say anything outrageous when they walk out of the lunar module." Zhang Kai shook his head and hung up the phone. He, a representative figure of formalization, was very helpless about the details. Asa didn't assign anyone in advance. Be the first to exit the position.
Good ones don¡¯t work, but bad ones work. The result of the guessing game was that Cape won. He became the first American to land on the moon and the first Australian to land on the moon. This made Canberra very satisfied and inadvertently fulfilled public opinion.
As soon as the four guys slipped out of the lunar module, Cape wanted to make a bold statement, but he held it in for a long time and couldn't think of it, because all the good words were ignored.The guy in front of me is finished. He poked Gao Chengjie next to him, "Come here, I, I'm so nervous that I can't speak!" Then he patted his chest and whispered: "It scares me to death. We are not koalas. We deserve so many mistakes. Are there people watching?¡±
Gao Chengjie made an exaggerated move first. Unexpectedly, the surface of the moon was different from that of the earth. He almost fell down. Shozo Kusunoki on the side quickly grabbed him. The TV audience heard this man mutter: "Grandma, you are a bear, on the moon." You have to walk like a kangaroo!¡±
"It is sometimes not a good thing that communication technology is too advanced. This curse word was clearly transmitted to the ground after only two seconds. People who can understand Chinese were stunned.
Berg pushed Gao Chengjie away and began to speak to the camera. He was very serious at the front, quite like a traditional German, and confused at the back. Fortunately, it did not last long and the broadcast was not interrupted. He finally said: "You said this Are you too tired to talk? In fact, I don¡¯t want to come, it¡¯s my dad who forced me. Thinking about working hard on the moon for a year, I feel a little broken!¡±
Kusunoki pushed Berg away and began to greet Australian people, Japanese people, company management, etc. one by one. He used many clich¨¦s and was as verbose and polite as traditional Japanese people. Asa was prepared to cut off his inappropriate words at any time, but he behaved normally and chatted for a long time. He also described the situation on the moon he saw, but his literary skills were too poor and dry and without nutrition. .
As Nanmu was talking, he suddenly screamed as if he saw a dinosaur, "Ah, there is an alien spacecraft!"
There was chaos in front of the TV. Rumors of alien spacecraft on the moon have been going on for a long time and are still very popular today. As an astronaut, what Kusunoki witnessed with his own eyes aroused the sense of crisis among the people on earth.
Berg pushed Nanmu away and first let the camera take pictures from all directions. The video was not interrupted, which proved that Nanmu was just nervous. Then he began to apologize, "I'm sorry, Mr. Nanmu is a science fiction enthusiast. He dreams of traveling to the moon. Now there are I have the opportunity to stay for a year, and I believe it can help science fiction fans answer many questions. If you are interested, you can send your questions to his email."
The audience didn¡¯t know what to say. With the successful landing of the living cabin, the four people began to get busy, installing various equipment. Since they could not be operated as easily as on earth, they seemed clumsy and often made mistakes. Fortunately, no accidents occurred. The live broadcast is still going on, which is quite interesting.
Li Zhuang looked at the camera and was speechless. He turned on the Internet and a reporter with a quick hand wrote a report and posted it online. The title was "Four mentally retarded people landed on the moon and talked nonsense."
