Chapter 376 Press Conference
Great Hall of the Himalayas.
...
The rioting scene gradually quieted down under someone's death gaze.
The Fourth Secretary, who was the moderator, hastily announced the official start of the press conference.
The purpose of investing in the Himalayas is to help the East survive the flood and ice.
In the past year, the project was unknown to the outside world. Even North America, because of the keyhole series of spy satellites, was shot down several times, and failed to discover this huge steel fortress on the dark side of Mount Everest.
Some time ago, there was an outbreak of microbial invasion on the mother star. In order to obtain more "loans that do not have to be repaid", Xu Fei took the opportunity to disclose the appearance of the base, and proposed energy reforms and plans to build a space elevator.
Therefore, today's Himalayan project has been packaged as a "world-class aerospace industry base" for docking with the moon and developing helium-3 energy.
At the same time, it is also the base camp of anti-microbial in the Asia-Pacific region, which belongs to the joint investment of Germany and the East.
The theme of this press conference is naturally to attract more capital to join.
In the form of PPT, the four secretaries respectively demonstrated the defense capability, scientific research scope, and population capacity of the 'Steel Fortress'...
"Currently, Himalaya has fully realized the electric industrial system. When helium 3 is put into use, we will gradually reduce the holdings of wind power plants, thermal power plants, hydroelectric power plants, and fuel oil machinery."
"I believe that under the leadership of Xu Shuji, the Himalaya Project will become the last line of defense for mankind in the Asia-Pacific region!"
North American reporter: "Beautiful lady, I would like to know if there are similar projects in other areas of our home planet?"
"There must be, and there are many of them."
The fourth secretary switched the PPT to a map supported by radar communication integration, "Currently, the fortifications that have been built include German North Berlin, Western Poland, Italian Alpine Line of Defense, Libyan Industrial City, Aegean North Military Base, North American North Bay in Boston, Massachusetts, Austin Farm in Texas, North America, and the German-American Joint Military Base in northern Mexico.
The defense projects that have been started and are under construction include FMC Aiken Ground Systems Division, Joint Defense Minneapolis Ordnance Systems Distribution, TEP Chambersburg and Santa Clara International City, General Electric Anniston Steel City, General Dynamics California base.
As for the planned defense projects, sorry, in order to avoid being stolen by microorganisms, this is a secret and is not disclosed to the public at present, but I can tell you that the number of defense projects will exceed people's imagination. "
Third brother reporter: "You have made so much preparation in advance, why didn't you make the news of the microbial invasion public earlier?"
"Sir, science pays attention to rigor. At present, human beings have not obtained microbial specimens, and it is temporarily impossible to start research. If they cannot be studied, naturally there is no relevant data. According to scientific characterization, without data, it means that microorganisms do not exist. Therefore, there is currently no country and scientific research. Institutions to disclose information related to microorganisms. Even North America and the World Health Organization are only in an unofficial capacity, warning the world and recommending increased vigilance."
Third Brother reporter: "But the army of microorganisms has appeared, and there was a brief exchange of fire with humans!"
"Sorry, we only believe in science, so we can't disclose relevant information."
New Zealand reporter: "Madam, does this mean that you believe that microorganisms do not exist?"
"You may think so."
Swiss reporter: "Why do you build the Himalayan Project if you think microbes don't exist?"
"Prevent microbial invasion, promote energy reform, and develop helium-3 energy."
"But you think microbes don't exist."
"Sir, have you ever seen God?"
"No."
"Do you believe in God?"
"Believe."
"Can you prove that God exists?"
"No."
"Then why do you still believe in God?"
"..."
"We haven't seen microorganisms, and we can't find evidence for their existence, but it doesn't prevent us from preventing microbial invasion. This is the same as your belief in God, and there is no contradiction between them."
Canadian reporter: "Ma'am, can you tell us what are the characteristics of microorganisms?"
The fourth secretary couldn't keep blowing.
He looked back at the big boss who was sitting on the rostrum, drinking tea from a white porcelain cup.
Seeing this, the big boss put the lid on the cup, put the white porcelain cup on the front of the table, and then pointed the five red characters of "serving the people" to the reporters, and then said:
"According to the speculation and verification of netizens, it is certain that microorganisms are not viruses, but a living organism, so they are not as scary as imagined.
However, we have used simulated computers to conduct multiple deduction, and relevant researchers are highly suspicious that this is a kind of 'nanoworm', which may be a 'biochemical product' or a 'mechanical product'. Unfortunately, we have not obtained samples so far, so we cannot Verify the guess.
We suspect that its body size is between 15 and 25 nm, and it is also the smallest microorganism in the world, which is no different from the size of a virus.
They can absorb energy from crude oil and minerals, grow themselves, and multiply their populations. At the same time, as energy is consumed, they will reduce their number until they go dormant again.
According to the combat performance of the opponent and the mother star army, they may have one or more 'commanders', who are used to coordinate the group's invasion of the human body, capture the 'human consciousness', and control the human beings, and read the human hippocampus or gene protein memory.
So far, there's only one way to spot them.
That is, when they invade our human body, they will trigger our immune mechanism, causing the genes in our cells to transcribe an RNA that 'contains wrong instructions'.
This RNA is the main basis for microorganisms to seize human self-awareness and control our bodies.
It's a bit complicated to say, but to describe it simply...
Are you hungry, do you think this is your mind?
No, in fact, the cells in your body need energy, transcribe RNA through DNA, tell your brain the demand, and then prompt you to eat.
What you eat and how it tastes are not your feelings, but the DNA transcription RNA in the cells of your tongue, which transmits information to your brain.
The reason why we have "self-awareness" is mainly from the ethics, morality, and laws that we have learned and imitated from childhood to adulthood, which is also called "self-cultivation" or "civilization".
After microbes change the messenger-RNA and control our body, because the related "consciousness" comes directly from the cells, without the "self", we may eat shit, eat people, and make many crazy actions.
Moreover, due to the absence of the 'self' and the tremendous energy brought by the microbes invading the cells, we will burst out with superhuman abilities under the control of the microbes.
The above is the information we currently have. "
North American reporter: "Mr. Xu, does this mean that humans controlled by microorganisms may become 'zombies' in movies and TV?"
"It is not ruled out, because microorganisms need to replenish energy. At present, they draw from crude oil and minerals. If they occupy the human body for a long time, they may use the human body as a feeding tool to eat creatures, even plants, ores, etc. wait.
Moreover, they have the ability to absorb energy. The wood and ore that the human body does not need to digest, after being absorbed by the energy, become waste residues that accumulate in our body, which may cause deformities and mutations in our body, and we can never recover from it. Can't get back the 'self' and become a monster, and at this stage, it means that the microbes have merged with us to form a new species.
Of course, they are no longer us, because we have lost our 'self', or died, and have no idea what our bodies are doing. "
The reporters at the scene were silent, and the entire auditorium was filled with pessimism and despair.
Xu Fei felt a little overblown, and coughed, "It's not that scary actually. Even if a zombie incident occurs, the current technology of the home planet is enough to deal with those things. Moreover, we have enough time to upgrade technology, reform energy, and enter a new era. The age of electricity."
"Most importantly, when we can control these microorganisms, our technology will usher in a major upgrade."
"For example, using these microorganisms to perform some minimally invasive surgeries to solve problems such as brain cancer and heart disease."
"For example, integrate them into 'brain machines', so that we can control them to release energy with the help of chips, and then prompt us to burst into a small universe and become a superman when we need it."
After Xu Fei finished speaking, he always felt that this kind of nonsense microorganism seemed a bit ridiculous.
If it is done, perhaps human civilization will really enter another level.
It's a pity that we don't have the relevant technology, not to mention the realization of "nanoworms", or even the realization of "helium-3 energy". We can only do everything possible to suppress the price of crude oil and continue to hoard crude oil.
Of course, the reporters did not doubt these words.
Because human beings have never lacked "twenty-five sons", and there is no shortage of followers of evil gods.
After the microbial invasion broke out in West Asia, some wealthy people who hoped to live forever, or hoped to change the status quo, flew directly to West Asia to look for the army of microorganisms.
Some of these people announced that they had succeeded in taking refuge, some announced that they had acquired the ability to live forever, and some announced that they were about to go to extraterrestrial galaxies...
Many photos and videos, no one knows the true or false,
Perhaps the perpetrators could not help but wonder if there were 'microbes' in this little broken ball when they saw the relevant remarks.
This is also one of the root causes of the mother star chaos.
"Director Xu, the microbiological detection box is $10/piece, the disposable medical surgical mask is $2/piece, and even the filter element of the air purifier has been raised to $100/piece. Is the price too high?"
"Look at the current situation of our home planet. Demonstrations and riots are happening everywhere. Even the factories of the Daze Industrial Complex in Europe and the United States have been smashed and looted. In addition, the workers do not go to work, which eventually leads to the forced production of many production plans. Suspended, the output is greatly reduced, and the cost is greatly increased. I am not a philanthropist, and I need to recover the investment cost, so the price increase is inevitable."
"But as far as I know, Dongfang's disposable medical surgical masks are still 0.5 red notes per piece, and there are no test boxes on the market."
"The salary level in the East is very low. No one can afford the disposable microbial detection box of 10 US dollars per piece. The mask is a supply and marketing medical system. It is entrusted to Lei Ze Medical Equipment Company to produce it. It is a subsidized emergency material, and 0.5 red notes / piece, sell one and lose one.”
"Then why are you still selling?"
"Your country is different from ours. Just look at the name of the country and you will understand."
As Xu Fei said, he picked up the white porcelain cup, wiped the five red characters of "serving the people" on it, and pointed at the reporters again.
The scene was silent.
After a while.
A wealthy reporter from the United Arab Emirates said weakly, "Director Xu, don't the prices of dogs go up?"
"..."
'If it weren't for seeing that you are a local tyrant, I would hang you on Mount Everest every minute! '
Xu Fei took a deep breath, smiled and said, "No price increase."
"Thank you Director Xu, you are kind."
Because the theme of the press conference is to introduce more capital to the Himalayan project.
After the reporters raised the 'microbial' issues that countries most want to know, they gradually turned the topic to the Himalaya Project.
"Mr. Xu, are people from outside the East allowed to come and settle here?"
"In principle, this refuge only allows residents of Dongfang-Tibet and Yunnan-Guizhou-Sichuan to settle in, but considering the construction cost, we will open a special area to allow overseas people to settle in. However, the conditions are relatively harsh. After all, the resources here belong to Dongfang , it is impossible for us to serve unrelated outsiders."
"I don't know what conditions are there?"
"First invest 1000 million dollars here and get the qualification to buy a house.
Secondly, buy a house with an area of more than 90 square meters, get the qualification to settle in the shelter, and receive a free X-version power bank.
Then spend 500 million U.S. dollars to activate basic services in the X-version power bank, and get the basic guarantee of living here.
As for other services, such as high-quality drinking water, high-end food, higher Internet speed, etc., you need to spend extra money to activate them according to your own economic conditions.
Don't be too expensive, because this place will soon become the safest place in the Asia-Pacific region, guaranteeing the safety of your life and property in all aspects, and providing high-quality services.
Believe me, this is the signboard of the Iron Cross Guards, TEP Emergency Brigade, Eastern Militia System, and Ray's Defense Group! "
The voice did not fall.
The big secretary who stayed in the office sent a message.
Xu Fei looked down and was surprised to find that Masayoshi Son, the richest man in Wajima hunted down by Takeuchi Rano, the founder of Softbank, donated 2000 million US dollars to the Himalaya project through the Daze e-commerce procurement system, and reserved a 500-square-meter villa , Remarks check in as soon as possible.
Immediately afterwards, Harden donated 1 million US dollars to the Himalaya project through the Daze e-commerce procurement system through the "small number", and also reserved a 500-square-meter villa, and noted that he would move in as soon as possible.
In addition, there is Uncle Kafiza who has been targeted by North America recently...
'Are you planning to form a group to take refuge? '
At this time.
The Thai reporter suddenly raised his hand, "Director Xu, when will the space elevator plan be implemented, and when is it expected to be put into operation?"
"Currently under construction, it is planned to be completed within one year, trial operation within two years, and commercialization within three years."
"I don't know the cost of using it, or in other words, how much is the fare?"
"In the early stage, it will basically not be open to the outside world, and it will only serve investors."
"Then how much investment do we need to become an investor with the right to use it?"
"According to the existing financing plan, an investment of 2500 billion U.S. dollars can account for about 0.5% of the shares."
"Is the proportion of shares too small?"
"Look at the shelter you're in, it's a multi-billion-level super project."
……
The press conference just announced that the Himalayan project can be invested.
Whether countries around the world will invest is still under discussion.
Therefore, the press conference on the first day was over, and in the next few days, the fourth secretary would host a press conference, which was used to talk to countries all over the world, like an open bidding.
But not all countries are eligible to invest in the Himalayas.
Because the investment Xu Fei hopes for is not 'banknotes', but rare earths, graphite, copper ore, and gold.
For example, South Vietnam is currently very poor and cannot afford a good knife. However, they have 2200 million tons of rare earth reserves, ranking second in the world, so they can definitely invest in the Himalayas.
And England belongs to 'one of the five leading countries'. It is powerful and has a developed economy. It can produce trillions of dollars, but it has no rare earths, graphite, and copper mines, and it is not willing to give out gold. Qualified to invest in Himalaya.
In short, whoever is willing to provide resources will be Director Xu's guest.
During Xu Fei's waiting, besides staying in the office, he occasionally went to the construction site or took a stroll around the graphite X processing workshop.
This morning, when he walked into the production workshop of graphite X-pillars in space orbit, he saw a paper with a "100 red note for lateness" pasted on the door, and hurriedly called the supervisor.
"What's going on, how can you be fined like this?"
"I'm sorry, the factory manager, I'll tear it up right away."
"No, you should change it to be late for 1 minute and pay a fine of 2 yuan. Do you think anyone will be late in the future?"
"There must be, and even more."
"That's right!"
"???"
