At nine o'clock in the morning, a small group of soldiers arrived at the door of the conference room and took over the defense of the conference room. Several reporters also hurriedly arrived.
At this moment, Yu Yifeng and Xu Yunjin also walked over from a distance at the same time.
Yu Yifeng looked at the several scientists waiting eagerly at the door, frowned slightly, and said directly: "Go in first, we will start the meeting immediately. The preparations for planetary landing are of great importance, and I cannot decide it alone.
If you have any questions, let’s talk inside.”
The leaders of the scientific team were slightly startled and looked at each other. Of course there was a reason why they came here to stop Yu Yifeng...
They were all firm supporters of the Super Hadron Collider. They originally wanted to persuade Yu Yifeng in their own name, but unexpectedly they were rejected directly.
One of the scientists followed Yu Yifeng anxiously and whispered: "Captain, we cannot delay the work of the Super Hadron Collider... Without it, it will be difficult for particle physics to develop, and we cannot delay any longer.
!”
"Basic physics has stagnated for too long..."
In fact, Yu Yifeng had already guessed what he wanted to say and had heard a little bit about it in the past few days.
Logically speaking, there is really no room for negotiation in this kind of matter. The Super Hadron Collider occupies too many people, with six thousand designers alone! Including miscellaneous people, there are a total of fifteen thousand people.
It’s not that it’s not important, but now that people have more important jobs, it’s impossible to allocate a large number of people to it.
But what troubles Yu Yifeng is that this project has been finalized, and a large meeting has been held. If it is rejected directly, it will definitely affect the credibility of the new government.
Moreover, he had a dark hunch that this group of crazy physicists were the real spiritual leaders among the scientists. They did not rely on alien creations at all and challenged the boundless universe with the small wisdom possessed by human beings.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Yu Yifeng did not want to hurt their spirit...
As time goes by, the current new human civilization has become more and more simple. All people have to do is to keep climbing the technology and light up the technology tree! Everyone enjoys it and cannot extricate themselves.
There are no conflicts of interests of this kind, people are friendly to each other, and the way they speak becomes more straightforward.
Although these scientists are smart, sometimes they behave like children.
The "Super Hadron Collider" is what they have been waiting for for a long time, and it is the "big toy" in the minds of all physicists!
Such toys cost a lot of money and would have been impossible to build in previous civilizations. Only now is it possible for the new human civilization...
It’s hard to explain their current mood clearly. Let’s use a specific analogy: New Human Civilization, a parent, has agreed to buy this expensive toy after being forced to do so by his children.
However, at this time, the whole family suddenly encountered an unexpected incident and a serious economic crisis occurred, so they had to give up the purchase plan.
One can imagine the disappointment of the child...
Many scientists worry about gains and losses like this.
They know clearly in their hearts that there are more important things to do now, but they are always very unwilling to simply give up the "Super Hadron Collider".
Yu Yifeng has also thought about this problem. Although these scientists are smart, they are also normal human beings. They also have emotions and desires, but they are not yet absolutely rational.
Especially those high-energy physics, particle physicists, and hadron colliders are involved in their vertical research fields. Now the plan may be shelved, as if their most precious things are being taken away, which is always very unpleasant.
one thing.
This matter may be big or small...
At worst, it is just a group of people complaining; at worst, it may even cause the division of scientists within the civilization.
After all, there are more than just one or two physicists. There are also top scientists such as Ding Yidong and Felix. They must also have regrets in their hearts.
Yu Yifeng was walking in the conference hall at this time. After the scientific team leader said these words, he immediately paused and then said something he had prepared for a long time.
"Mr. Nick, I can't promise anything else, but I'm sure that the two thousand core designers will still be reserved for the Super Hadron Collider... This plan will not be cut off directly!"
"Moreover, should the previous project plans be revised? What I mean is...if we have almost unlimited resources in the future, should we overturn the previous plans and make the hadron collider stronger and bigger?
?”
"Anyway, you can do whatever you want when the time comes... You don't have to be too anxious. The progress of science and technology will always be given top priority."
The scientist was slightly stunned.
Although only 2,000 core designers have been recruited, it can ensure that the Super Hadron Collider project continues to be implemented and will not be shelved directly. It is not the best result in my mind, so I can only make do with it.
Of course he himself knows that planet landing cannot be done carelessly, as it is related to the future of mankind.
But when he heard the next sentence, he immediately felt happy.
He understood what Yu Yifeng meant. As long as people reach that planet and obtain a large amount of resources, the government will spare no effort to support any scientific research work!
What are resources used for?
Resources, of course, are used for scientific research!
The total human population is less than 60,000. No matter how extravagant it is, how much can it be spent on? What else can it be used for besides scientific research?
Although so far, this sentence is still a blank check, the scientist named Nick still happily accepted it.
When I think about it this way, my mentality seems to be different...
"We want to make a bigger and stronger collider..."
Nick returned to his seat and immediately announced Yu Yifeng's verbal commitment. He also had a heated discussion with his companions behind him about how the Super Hadron Collider should be modified...
They are immersed in a world of unlimited resources...
After resolving this minor conflict, Yu Yifeng went directly to the podium, while Xu Yunjin sat in a seat below the podium.
He solemnly said: "Gentlemen and ladies, I believe you have also heard the good news. An Earth-like planet eight times the size of the Earth is about 14 light years away from our position. If we follow the current trajectory of Noah,
, the nearest distance is 120 million kilometers..."
"It is estimated that we will reach the closest point in two years and seven months. If we use nuclear bombs or ion engines to change the trajectory, we should be able to reach it within three years. However, due to limited observation methods, we are currently unable to conduct a comprehensive survey of this planet.
Observation.”
"We don't know what's on it, we don't know whether this planet has an atmosphere, and we don't know if alien life exists... Apart from the size and mass of the planet, we know almost nothing! But there is no doubt that we must
Land on this planet and obtain the resources we desperately need!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, please use your brains and wisdom. We will be fully prepared in more than two years, probably three years!"
After saying this, he paused for a moment before continuing: "Here, I announce that we plan to use 70%-80% of the spacecraft's reserve resources to complete this preparation!"
"We must take this planet!"
"...Whether it is a living bill, an inanimate bill, an atmospheric bill, a non-atmospheric bill... in short, the more detailed the better, I hope to get as complete an answer as possible from everyone!"
After Yu Yifeng said this, he sat down and waited quietly.
