Chapter 1573: Well planned

Remember in one second 【】
The celebration of the ignition day came to an end, but the excitement that burned in people's hearts was not pushed to the slightest, but was pushed to a new peak.
Space elevator!
This magnificent project originally existed only in people's imagination. No one had ever thought that it would really come into their lives someday in the future.
Now it seems that this day is coming soon.
No matter what other audiences sitting in front of the TV watched the event, at least for those sitting in the venue, there was almost no doubt that Lu Zhou was joking with them.
After all, just three days ago, they were sitting here with their eyes to witness such a miracle. The shock of the aurora that enveloped the night sky of the entire city group would not have been simply forgotten in this life.
Not to mention the fact that even century-old problems like second-generation controllable fusion cannot stop him from moving forward, what is a space elevator worth?
They are willing to believe in his abilities and vision.
Even now it looks like a big pie ...
A bustling crowd emerged from the heart of Asia's venues, diverted by staff and security to the direct light rail station and parking lot.
Although everyone in the crowd couldn't hear what was being discussed excitedly, the expressions on their faces had already written everything they wanted to say.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the Heart of Asia lounge, watching the crowd flowing downstairs, the corner of Li Guangya's mouth slightly raised a proud arc.
Hearing the footsteps coming from behind, he put his hands behind his back, and said with a smile, watching the reflection on the floor-to-ceiling window.
"Did you see the expression on people's faces?"
Walking to his side, Lu Zhou glanced at the square outside the floor-to-ceiling window and replied in a casual tone.
"See, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, just a little emotion," Li Guangya narrowed his eyes and continued with a spirited expression. "In the report of the council five years ago, I reported on the strategic significance of the space elevator. However, the attitude of most council members is It is ridicule. Although I did not do this to prove anything, I have to admit that this feeling is quite pleasant. "
Lu Zhou glanced at him and asked.
"I don't really understand one thing."
"Which point?"
"Why are you so attached to the space elevator."
"On the one hand, it may be because of feelings," Li Guangya smiled, paused for a while, and then said in a serious tone, "on the other hand, because I have read a paper ... or a research report. "
"report?"
"Well, about the value of the development and utilization of resources outside the asteroid belt."
In brief language, Li Guangya and Lu Zhou described the content of the research report.
As we all know, since the industrial system on the Martian colony has matured, the frontier of human civilization has expanded from Mars orbit to the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
The large amount of low-cost and easy-to-use high-purity ore provided by the asteroid belt supports the huge heavy industry system on Mars, and provides a continuous supply of living materials and consumer goods for the society on earth.
However, since the expansion of human civilization into the asteroid belt, the natural expansion of this territory seems to have stopped.
At the beginning, many sociological scholars and experts gave the point that after their society has developed into an unprecedented stage of prosperity, it has fallen into the trap of over-prosperity, because there is no crisis of survival, which has led to the loss of aggressiveness in society as a whole Motive power.
However, the research report gave a different view.
It interprets this special social phenomenon from an unprecedented perspective.
Based on efficiency and economic value as the fundamental driving force of all social activities, the research report established a simple mathematical model and derived a concept called "effective economic zone".
That is, within the scope of this effective economic zone, human social activities have more than positive economic effects. However, once it exceeds this range, the economic effect will decrease with various factors such as distance and flight time.
The size of the effective economic zone is usually determined by various factors such as technical strength, industrial scale and distribution area. At present, the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter is the boundary of this "effective economic zone".
Mining resources from the world outside the asteroid belt, sending them to Mars for processing, and then transporting the processed finished products back to Earth. Supply chains beyond the effective economic zone will be unprofitable due to cost issues, so there is little After the company has estimated the cost, it will put the world outside the asteroid belt into its own proposal.
Since the author of this research report is a well-known professor of economics at the Pan-Asian Academy of Sciences, it is still very influential in the field. Although Li Guangya was not born to study finance, he believes that the future of pan-Asian cooperation is in distant space, and he has been paying attention to this research.
After reading the research report, the idea of ​​building a space elevator came into his mind.
At present, the over-prosperous pan-Asian cooperation has begun to show signs of involution. Not only is the public comfortable with the status quo, but the entire society is a motive force for progress.
As an aspiring young man, he could not sit idly by and watch this great alliance be overtaken by other emerging alliances. They also failed to achieve the great goal of building a community of shared future for humanity.

Pan-Asian cooperation needs a super project that can drive the regional economy, expand the scope of effective economic zones, and enable its citizens to regain their pride and pride.
The space elevator is undoubtedly such an excellent choice.
Even if he made this decision, he was not the chairman of the Pan-Asian Cooperation at that time, and it did not prevent him from including the "building plan" in his governing program in advance.
What he is determined to do, he will do it!
"I have to thank you for talking about this," Li Guangya glanced at Lu Zhou and said with a smile, "If it was not the time you woke up, I bet those people must have labeled me crazy. Now. "
Lu Zhou replied in a nonchalant tone.
"You're welcome, it's just a few words of work, but it's much easier than the big trouble on Ceres ... By the way, do you need my help for subsequent design work?"
I did not expect a terrible land boat, and offered to help.
Li Guangya froze slightly, then said with a smile.
"Of course you are willing to help. Of course, if you don't have time, I won't force it here. Just like we said, you can give us some help at the necessary time. Thank you very much."
Lu Zhou gave him an unexpected look.
"It looks like you were prepared a long time ago."
"Of course," Li Guangya smiled confidently and said leisurely, "I was already preparing for this day when I was still the vice chairman of the council."
That was five or six years ago.
At that time, the research on space elevators was not taken seriously. After all, the key material problems were not solved, and no matter how much they talked about, they were in the air. Therefore, no matter in academia or industry, this thing is not treated as a project that can be realized in a short period of time.
If it had not been for the approval of more than one billion credit points, it was implemented in the design of space elevators, and administrative forces were used to integrate the technical backbone of top research institutions such as the Institute of Orbital Engineering of the Pan-Asian Academy of Sciences and the Aerospace Facilities Design Institute The original R & D team that set up the space elevator project, now I have to worry about the lack of rice.
Now that the issue of materials is finally resolved, Li Guangya is full of confidence in fulfilling his ambitions. UU Reading Book www.uukanshu.com
Although I was curious where this guy came from, I was confident that everything would go so smoothly, but Lu Zhou didn't say much, just simply nodded.
"Now that you're ready in advance, I'm relieved."
The system does not stipulate his participation in this project. As long as this ladder to space is built on the earth, his promotion task is considered complete.
Of course, if he can, he still hopes that they can complete this grand super project with their own strength, instead of relying on their old ancestors to read things by accident.
Although he has spent endless hours, this does not mean that his time is worthless.
But in fact, if you think about it, they have a big win.
After all, the most critical material problems have been solved for them.
Should n’t the remaining questions be minor?
Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a pleasant reading! ^ 0 ^
