A joint meeting composed of multiple departments is being held.
The conference room adopts a round table format.
At this time, the conference room was filled with smoke and silence.
In silence, the leader of the joint meeting frowned deeply and looked at the consultant who represented certain wills.
There is no doubt that what the consultant announced two days ago... has caused great disturbance or confusion to him and his joint meeting.
"Mr. Advisor, I don't think your publicly stated behavior is of any help to the current situation. It will only disrupt our rhythm and deployment."
Faced with the doubt, the famously radical consultant smiled slightly: "General, what is your rhythm and deployment? Do you change the code book every day?"
"That's not something you should consider." The elder's eyes narrowed and became sharp in an instant.
"But it should be something that this country should consider." Mr. Consultant responded tit-for-tat and knocked on the table gently: "I don't need to introduce how important controllable nuclear fusion is and how important space is, right?"
"Now, it is a fact that we are lagging behind in controllable nuclear fusion, it is also a fact that we are lagging behind in the field of space engines, and it is also a fact that we are lagging behind in artificial intelligence - so how do you think we should catch up?"
"Not everyone is stupid." Mr. Consultant pointed to his head: "I am very sober here. I can clearly see that if we do nothing, we will watch them fly into the interstellar age."
"At that time, will you accept it?"
"So you want to start the third time... right?" The elder did not answer directly, but stared at the consultant: "Or do you think history will repeat itself?"
"No, we just need to buy time."
"While we still have absolute strength, unite all our allies to delay them - if you have played an Age of Empires game, you will know that when one party clicks the Age of Empires upgrade button, it is also the weakest time
.”
"If you miss this opportunity, then... what you will face will no longer be aircraft and warships, but spaceships."
"Your Excellency, do you really want to see such a scene?"
//Everyone is thinking too much and don’t dare to write more. This chapter can be deleted and revised at any time.

…
Ye Ming looked up from the monitor.
Then, his eyes met with He Mo's.
The latter looked at him and just shrugged: "Don't look at me like that, I don't know either."
Ye Ming glared at her: "There is no official news at all, you say you don't know?"
"I really don't know..." He Mo looked helpless.
Indeed, it has been two days since the news came out. It is extremely rare that there is no news at all in the country - except for the excitement among netizens.
All official media did not make any comments, and even the daily press conferences had no comment on the news.
This... is very thought-provoking.
But He Mo was right, and she didn't know the specific reason - after all, she was mainly responsible for Aita and assisting Ye Ming.
But what she knows is that the more silent it is, the more abnormal it means.
On the side, Yinta watched the riddle-like conversation between the two, and she was very confused: "What are you talking about?"
"What we are saying is..."
Just when Ye Ming was about to explain, there were rapid footsteps outside the door. A moment later, Director Niu appeared at the door with a smile on his face.
Seeing his expression, Ye Ming's heart moved slightly.
…
"How to say?"
"Not much to say." Director Niu took the teacup handed over by Yin Ta and glanced at the door again.
He Mo went out knowingly, and then closed the door from the corridor.
"..." Ye Ming immediately became speechless.
"Let me discuss two things with you first."
"What's up?"
"First of all, Aita's computing core needs to be moved underground."
Ye Ming's eyes narrowed instantly, and a breath of cold air hit his heels.
"Fuck!" he growled lowly: "How many meters underground? Where?"
"One hundred meters away, right next to it."
"Fack! In your judgment, is the provincial capital really going to be bombed?" Ye Ming took a few quick breaths, but he still couldn't calm down.
He began to look at Director Niu's cheerful expression and thought he had the pearl of wisdom in his hands...
After finishing the work, tell yourself right away that you need to do a good job in nuclear prevention projects?
What the fuck...
"We used to think that the ballast stone on the opposite side had enough wisdom and determination, but now it seems..." Although Director Niu's expression was still smiling, there was undisguised worry and regret between his eyebrows.
: "In short, prepare for the worst."
After hearing this, combined with all the previous rumors...
Ye Ming gradually calmed down.
"It means it's really dangerous, right?"
"Um."
"Then why?" Ye Ming paused: "There is no news or response?"
"Because we have learned from the experience last time, doing it is more useful than talking." Director Niu paused: "The second thing."
"you say."
"Anti-gravity field, all the theories are in your head, and only you can design it - you said, how many things can anti-gravity lift?"
Ye Ming was stunned again.
The gravity field and anti-gravity field generating devices exist as the highest technical secrets. Regardless of the theory or design plan, only no more than ten people within Aita's authority can read it.
It stands to reason that it can be used in other fields - such as flying cars. But in order to ensure the absolute blockade and advantage of the technology, Ye Ming never considered using it outside of space projects.
At least for now.
Now... Director Niu asked how heavy it was to lift?
"What do you mean?" Ye Ming stared at Director Niu: "What I can tell you is that as long as the conservation of mass and energy is satisfied, it can lift infinitely heavy things."
"For example, a 100,000-ton space carrier?"
"Holy shit!" Ye Ming took a deep breath again, confirming whether Director Niu was trying to imagine for himself...
"Don't be kidding, Lao Niu, I thought I was radical enough."
"No kidding." Director Niu's smile slowly disappeared from his face, followed by unprecedented seriousness.
"We must make all preparations. Then, how to build on our current foundation and develop our strength to a height that no one can reach is a question we have to consider."
Ye Ming also slowly fell silent.
He closed his eyes, frowned slightly, and muttered something.
"According to Ford-class calculations, it is 330 meters long and 40 meters wide. It does not require a flight deck or island. It is a fully enclosed structure...it is necessary to consider the aircraft exit and safety interception system..."
"We need to redesign the engine." Ye Ming looked at Director Niu: "To be precise, it's not about designing the engine, but about designing the energy reactor system."
"How big do you want it to be?"
"The current electrical energy conversion power of the engine is almost enough to be multiplied by 10."
At this time, Director Chang Niu was stunned.
"What the hell?"
"Anti-gravity is not omnipotent. You can even think that the force field it generates is constantly fighting against universal gravity on a cosmic scale."
"Can that be designed?"
Ye Ming fell silent again.
After a moment, he nodded slightly.
Even without redesigning the reactor, it can still be accomplished through multi-engine output.
But... such a big thing goes to the sky...
Moreover, if we really want to build an aerospace base, why would it be so big? Can the spacecraft be modified so that it can go directly to the sky?
