After Christmas, heavy snow fell from the sky in New York. The heavy snow covered the city with silver. Schiller sat on a chair in the office and blew the hot air floating on the cup. The light of the computer screen reflected in his eyes.
.
Although the computer screen now stayed on the interface of the work software, Schiller shook the mouse slightly to reveal the interface of the news website under the work software. Above it was the newly opened science news section of the Global Times.
Originally, the Global Times did not report on scientific research progress, or in other words, no newspaper would report such things carefully. Even if it did, it would just be an exaggerated stunt to attract the attention of black technology enthusiasts, or
It's just a platform for some companies.
But things change at any time. When the solar system construction plan is in full swing, officials also begin to disclose certain information to ordinary people through some news channels to inoculate them.
Otherwise, if people are still stuck in the period when it is difficult to land on the moon, and a space battleship suddenly appears above their heads, many people will be frightened.
Therefore, newspapers and media with official channels like the Global Times have begun to focus on reporting on human scientific and technological progress, as if human basic science has been greatly improved in just a few days.
In fact, many technologies have been researched a long time ago, but they are still kept secret. But now, because the technological leap is about to begin, there is no need to keep these secret technologies secret anymore. Therefore, ordinary people have discovered that these scientific and technological advances
The coverage has overwhelmingly occupied all news and browser homepages.
Since Eddie Brock is a front-line reporter in the universe, he mainly means being on the front line of major events in the universe. With the Venom Symbiote's completely unreasonable and powerful physical fitness, he endured the aftermath of the war and shot many precious pictures of the universe.
, after returning to Earth, he became the editor-in-chief of the Global Times, so the science section of the Global Times has become the most popular science news report.
At this time, on the main interface of their official website, the most conspicuous title read a line of large characters: "Another breakthrough in material technology! With the advent of molten steel alloy that is not inferior to vibranium, will human materials science reach a new peak?"
After clicking on this title, you can see an interview report full of various professional terms. The interviewee is a researcher from Stark Group. According to him, molten steel is a miracle of materials science in the new era.
It has properties that are comparable to those of gold. More importantly, it can be synthesized in batches and the output is extremely high.
When asked about the formula of this alloy, the researcher revealed that this is still the masterpiece of Tony Stark, and the formula is only in his hands.
This result did not surprise anyone who read this report. In fact, in the past few days, Stark seemed to have been opened up to the second line of Ren and Du. Amazing inventions came one after another.
Not that no one suspected that he committed academic fraud in order to gain attention, but Stark told them in another way that it was all true - he applied all these techniques to his steel suit, and then drove
Battle of Steel flies over New York eight times a day.…
When it was revealed that Stark was Iron Man, most people had a very negative evaluation of it. They regarded the Iron Suit as a toy for a rich man to have fun.
Until now, this impression has not changed much, it has just become a toy for a wealthy and skilled man to have fun.
Now most people's evaluation of Iron Man is that Stark is a complete bad person and a damn playboy. God is really unfair to the extreme. Not only did he give him so much money, he also gave him a useful heart.
brain.
Stark enjoyed this evaluation very much. During the interview, he answered this question head-on. He said: "Yes, but God is more unfair than you think. He not only gave me a lot of wealth and wisdom, but also gave me a lot of money."
It’s my charm that makes women around the world fall in love with me, that’s the point!”
Putting aside the fact that the haters were so angry at him, his former cover girl girlfriends came forward one after another and said that they were not interested in Stark's wealth and wisdom at all, but mainly because of his charm.
Putting aside these tidbits for the time being, news reports about the new material melting steel not only caused an uproar in the three continents of the United States, Asia and Europe, but also made a small country in Africa as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, that is Wakanda
.
I have to admit that Wakanda’s current international status is inseparable from the importance of vibranium. Their leader Black Panther is indeed a knowledgeable and far-sighted leader, but without the special material of vibranium
Nature, Wakanda will never develop to the level it is today.
Originally, with the vibranium stockpile in hand, Wakanda could use the emperor to control the princes, use the vibranium to make use of the whole world, and allow Wakanda to occupy an important position in interstellar development.
Even Stark had to discuss it with Black Panther in a good voice, even at this important point. If each country wants to get a share of vibranium, it must bid. Wakanda's international status has been declining recently.
It used to go up.
If the leader, Black Panther T'Challa, was a selfish and unprogressive villain, he would have been crowned the African Emperor by now.
But T'Challa is a very wise and far-sighted leader. Although he is stuck with vibranium resources, he also strategizes and manipulates resources in exchange for the support of the international community. At the same time, he is also quite righteous and joins forces with Stark to improve the situation.
The mining output of vibranium will make mankind's solar system construction plan more stable.
During this period of research, the friendship between Stark and T'Challa developed rapidly. Therefore, as soon as the news of the molten steel came out, T'Challa immediately contacted Stark.
"...Yes, I know you are anxious, and I also know that new materials are related to Wakanda's future development, but the reserves of vibranium are too small. For the entire construction plan, it is simply a drop in the bucket."
Stark was a little anxious when he heard T'Challa's voice on the other end of the phone. He comforted T'Challa and said, "Of course, molten steel alloy is not omnipotent. The strategic status of vibranium has not declined as seriously as you think...
…”
"Tony, I hope you understand that this is an important resource that all people in our country rely on for survival, and it is also the most important bargaining chip that we can use to stand on the international community..."...
Stark shook his head and said: "T'Challa, don't you think you take vibranium a little too seriously? Do you really plan to tie your entire country and everyone in your country to this material?
Above?"
Before T'Challa could say anything, Stark said: "Just because we are friends, I have to remind you of this. I think I want to tell you a story about the consequences of over-reliance on special resources.
The story of a tragic civilization..."
In Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, Storm was standing in front of Professor
In that case, the large amount of resources in their hands may become waste paper."
"What's even more frightening is that they feel that their leader Black Panther did not take strong enough measures to protect Vibranium's strategic position. Some even think that T'Challa should not have controlled Vibranium's output before.
If we can monetize the vibranium resources when the time comes, we won’t have to deal with the impact of alternative materials now.”
Charles covered his forehead and said: "Isn't Wakanda the country with the highest education level in Africa? Can't they understand such a common-sense question?"
Storm sighed, brushed her silver hair behind her ears, and said: "Techalla distributed the shares of vibranium to the people originally to improve everyone's welfare, but once the resources are distributed to individuals, they will
They don’t care about the country’s strategy, they only care about whether the resources they have are going to depreciate.”
"Many people are already clamoring for the country to purchase the vibranium resources in their hands at the previous market price, but T'Challa cannot do that, which will cause Wakanda's capital chain to break."
"Didn't he go talk to Stark? In fact, the matter did not reach that point at all." Charles still said calmly: "Although molten steel is good, there is a limit to its production capacity, and the amount of resources required for the construction plan of the solar system
It’s an astronomical number. It’s not necessarily the case that if you have molten steel, you won’t have vibranium, so why can’t we have them all?”
"Yes, I also know that even if the properties of molten steel are similar to vibranium, they are not exactly the same. Whether the new material is stable and controllable needs to be tested over time. During this period, they will still rely on Wakanda.
Vibranium..." Storm concluded.
"But it's hard for Black Panther to convince people, isn't it?" Charles asked.
Storm sat down, she showed a sad expression, and said: "I have been with T'Challa during this time, and he told me about his dream. He hopes that Wakanda will not just be a small African country.
He hopes that he and the people here will have the opportunity to reach into the universe..."
"Therefore, he did not use his power as king to sell precious vibranium resources without restraint. Instead, he used these resources to exchange for more support from the international community to enhance Wakanda's international status. At the same time,
He also actively participated in the construction of the solar system, even at great cost, just to keep up with the pace of the big powers..."
"However, these efforts of his are not easy to see. What people see is that T'Challa has a good relationship with Stark, and then locks himself in the laboratory to work on inventions that they don't understand at all, just like a
A foolish king who doesn’t care about the people at all..."
Storm closed her eyes, tilted her head, her eyelashes flickered, as if she was about to shed tears, and she said: "It is precisely because I have lived in New York for so long that I can better understand how poor the people in my hometown are.
Fear and helplessness, in that land, the people of Wakanda have witnessed too many tragedies of small countries falling apart, and they are extremely afraid of that day coming."
"Any slightest disturbance will make them feel as frightened as a frightened bird, but you can't blame them, because you never know whether the next accident will cause the newly ignited fire of civilization to be extinguished..."
"It seems that your trip to Wakanda has brought you a lot of changes, Ororo. In the past, you rarely mentioned the situation in your hometown."
"I am a black man born in New York. You know, in black circles in New York, no one likes to talk about Africa. My mother also told me that she is trying to forget about Kenya."
Storm raised her head, with light shining in her light-colored holes, and she said: "But our ability to control the weather comes from the Monroe family in Kenya, where we have inherited it for thousands of years..."
"The wind, rain, thunder and lightning in that land often appeared in my dreams. But this time, after I returned to Africa, I discovered that it was not the African paradise in the reports..."
Storm showed a sad expression and said, "Neither is Wakanda."
