A few hours later, the fleet approached Qiongzhou Island, the coastline came into view again, and two towering transmission towers appeared in sight.
Ye Han visually discovered that the straight-line distance between the transmitting tower and the coast is only seven or eight hundred meters.
The fleet moved forward slowly, and as the distance approached, the tall iron towers erected at the four corners of the launch tower came into view.
Bai Xiaoting asked curiously: "What is the iron tower for?"
"Thunder protection." Ye Han said concisely and to the point.
Bai Xiaoting has just joined the training team, unlike Ye Han who has already learned a lot of aerospace knowledge in the training team.
The fleet passed the launch center and soon slowed down and docked at the dock. The dock was well-equipped and filled with unnamed equipment.
All members of the aerospace training team gathered on the flight deck according to their affiliations. Ye Han and Bai Xiaoting were temporarily separated, and then the team left the ship one by one.
There were at least a hundred people waiting on the pier, but there was no welcome ceremony. Staff members immediately contacted the team after they disembarked, and led the team onto the bus waiting on the pier, and drove slowly to the training base not far from the pier.
The training base is a large group of buildings with the same style, and they don't look like new buildings.
Everyone moved into the dormitory area with the help of the staff. Although they didn't bring much luggage, they still had to work for more than an hour to finish it.
Next, Ye Han immediately found the officer in charge of living arrangements and applied for housing benefits.
In the training team, everyone must live in a collective dormitory, and no one is exempt. However, after the second batch of preparatory astronauts reported, there were quite a few husband and wife teams like Ye Han and Bai Xiaoting. Based on the principle of humanized management, the base provided space for everyone.
A couple is provided with a double dormitory, which is jokingly called the couple's room, the couple's room, or even the "pao room" by the students.
In order to facilitate management, students can only return "home" to reunite during holidays, and they still have to live in collective dormitories on weekdays.
This unkind rule was notorious in the training team. Students protested many times but never received a response, causing the husband and wife team to complain.
According to regulations, trainees who have completed all training will automatically be qualified as astronauts, and from then on they can enjoy the benefits of commuting from nine to five. The problem is that although Ye Han can commute, Bai Xiaoting must undergo training. Ye Han is also lonely at home.
Personally, it would be better to live in a dormitory where it would be more lively.
However, the first day of reporting was normally a rest day. After Ye Han completed the application, he immediately found Bai Xiaoting, and the two of them found their new home together.
The area of the new home is not large, a little smaller than a standard double room in a hotel. The only advantage is that it has a complete bathroom.
The journey of thousands of kilometers from Beidu to Qiongzhou was exhausting both physically and mentally. Although it was still early, neither of them was in the mood to be gentle, so they just took a shower and went to bed.
The Qiongzhou training base has been their home since then.
The training team had a very heavy task and was only given half a day to rest. Everything returned to normal the next day. Ye Han and Bai Xiaoting devoted themselves to intense study and training. They could only reunite once a week and usually only stay away from each other during meal times.
If you take one look at it, you may not be able to look at it again and again.
For the newlyweds, this is undoubtedly another painful torture... I don't know if Huo Qiang did it on purpose. He had to put the two groups of people in the same canteen to eat together and not let them sit together. If it hadn't been for Huo Qiang
I am the biggest official, I am afraid that I have been beaten many times and have been unable to take care of myself many times.
Huo Qiang was very dissatisfied with the progress of the training team, but when he first arrived in Qiongzhou, it took time to adapt to all aspects, so he could only keep a lot of plans in his heart for the time being.
A week later, the training team finally got on the right track. Most of the trainees had adapted to the local climate and were no longer acclimated. Huo Qiang gave an order to gather all the first batch of trainees into the base auditorium.
Huo Qiang stood behind the podium in front and said solemnly: "There is only one thing that brought everyone here today. After a few days of running in, everyone has adapted to the conditions of the new base. Starting tomorrow, the Moon Palace Project will be officially launched."
Everyone in the audience was sitting upright, and everyone was looking at Huo Qiang.
"I think all the comrades here have heard of the Moon Palace Project, but do any of you know the details of the Moon Palace Project? No, right? Today I will introduce to you the past and present of the Moon Palace Project."
Ye Han couldn't help but have some doubts. Is it still the past life? Is the Moon Palace plan complicated?
Huo Qiang said: "As early as half a year ago, I don't know the specific time, but around the time when the alien asteroid group was discovered, the Moon Palace project was already on the agenda, and it was a secret consultation between multiple countries to jointly fund the construction of an international moon.
base."
"The idea is very good, but to use an old saying, the ideal is full and the reality is very skinny." Huo Qiang said humorously, "Beidou's original idea was to participate in international cooperation to reduce construction costs and speed up the pace of establishing a foothold on the moon. However, the United States has always been
Treat us as an imaginary enemy, and this time is no exception. The gringos have formulated a project plan that allows us to get the most money and resources, but the ownership of the lunar base does not match the proportion of the payment."
"Some of the comrades here may know that we have conducted many international cooperation with foreign countries, some of which were successful, some of which failed, and some of which ended in vain. Even those who rushed to participate were ignored. Let me give you an example. Back then, we used American
GPS, the Americans use this to choke us. In order to get rid of the constraints of the Americans, we invested nearly 300 million US dollars to participate in the European Galileo system, but the result? We were excluded from the decision-making level by the Europeans, and technical cooperation was also limited.
It was deliberately hindered by the European Space Agency, and three hundred million was wasted, and only then did the Beidou system develop."
"It is also an international cooperation. The International Space Station welcomes astronauts from all countries, including Maozi and many small countries. Only we are excluded. The reason is nonsense national security, saying that they are afraid that we will steal the Americans' aerospace technology. The Japanese and others
Grandma, do we need to steal their technology? We now have our own paradise, what do the Americans have?"
"Because we have suffered a lot in international cooperation, Beijing is very sensitive to international cooperation. Originally, Beijing thought that the situation was so bad that the Americans should show some sincerity, but I didn't expect that dogs can't change their minds.
Americans are still the same stupid people and have not made any progress at all."
"So, Beidu rejected the American plan and decided that we should go it alone. If we don't fight for steamed buns, we will fight for breath!"
"And it's not just us that the Americans are rejecting. Maozi is not much better either. The conflict between Maozi and the United States has been around for a long time, and the conflict between Europe and Maozi is also not small. So after Beidou withdrew, Maozi also followed Beidou's withdrawal from international cooperation.
The plan will have a big impact on the Americans, but the losses to Mao Zi will be even greater, do you understand what I mean?"
