Chapter 143 2000 meters below the surface (for the leader Wuji 20161/5)
Time flies, years are wasted, and old age makes you sad.
For more than a year, the missing incident of Dr. Du Qiu, which once shocked the world, and the series of games surrounding him, between Tang and Mi, have all fallen into silence over the years.
Ten months ago, it was said that traders’ own mistakes caused an avalanche of rice stocks at historically high levels.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average plummeted from close to 30,000 points, and the economy collapsed.
Since then, the United States has even more revealed the anxiety and lack of confidence of the oldest empire, and has begun to strengthen alliances just like the empire on which the sun never sets.
At this time, after the new president of the United States came to power, he changed his previous style of withdrawing from the group and turned to win over allies to form the Pan-Spanish Alliance.
Tang State still firmly implements the policy of comprehensive opening up, accelerates the advancement of the two-line encirclement strategy, and its rise is still unstoppable.
In a corner of black Africa, on the shore of the peaceful lake.
The original Tang-style buildings from the 1960s and 1970s seem to have not changed at all, but the roads there have been re-paved.
The road that bypasses the mountains to the north and east and enters the valley has also been renovated, making it wider and flatter.
In the south of this ten-square-kilometer valley, rows of new factory buildings were built.
This is the factory area of a company called Magic Technology Industrial Group, which has many local employees from the Tanga Federation.
Magic Technology Industrial Group is a foundry group headquartered in Germany that has emerged as a new force in the past year or so.
It provides parts or complete machine OEM business to many consumer electronics and automobile manufacturers around the world. Its factories are located in many BRIC countries, and this is its largest factory.
The Tanga Federation was originally a country with little industrial foundation, but over the past year or so, with the arrival of magical technology, a large number of supporting factories and companies have followed, which has greatly enhanced the Tanga Federation's industrial strength.
The port city of Dasalam has therefore become the largest trade transit port in East Africa. Countless raw materials are shipped by sea, turned into finished products and then shipped out by sea.
Defense Minister Hussein Muveny, who facilitated this incident, has risen sharply in the ruling People's Action Party and has become the party's second-ranking figure.
Outside the mountains in the north of this area, on the gentle slopes, there is also a large number of factories, and new factories are still being built in full swing towards the city of Dasharam.
This is the second and third phases of Magic Technology Industrial Park, which not only houses a large number of supporting enterprise factories, but also includes Magic Technology's own new factory.
Especially for the third phase under construction, local employees of Magic Technology all know that they will gradually move to work outside the mountain.
From there to the city of Salam, the distance is more than 10 kilometers. There is no need to take a commuter car on the winding mountain road to enter the valley.
This area was developed into an industrial town by a company called Magic Technology.
There will be a tunnel connecting this valley to the industrial park beyond the mountain in the north in the future. The project to open the mountain tunnel is currently in full swing.
The most peaceful place in the entire valley is the old factory area.
But no one dared to go there and break the tranquility.
Because a warning sign of a military restricted area has been erected there, not only the company's security personnel, but also the Tanga Federal Defense Forces are stationed there.
It is said that it is also equipped with automatic firepower. If you break in without permission, you will be torn to pieces by the powerful firepower in an instant.
The tunnel construction area in the mountains to the north is completely blocked, and locals cannot enter it to see how the tunnel is connected.
At this time, Da Liu was riding an unmanned electric vehicle and was passing by on the road next to him.
The enclosed unmanned electric vehicle is made of panoramic glass shell, just like a sightseeing vehicle.
Accompanying Da Liu was the big black man Hao Ren.
Seeing Da Liu looking at the tunnel construction site with some curiosity, Hao Ren explained: "This tunnel is a concealment project, and of course it is also for the convenience of internal and external communication.
The progress of this project is very slow. It has lasted for a year and will continue for some time.
During this period of time, we have completed the construction of the base under the mountain, and it is now coming to an end."
Da Liu was a little surprised and asked: "In just over a year, can you complete an underground base under the mountain? How big can it be?"
Hao Ren smiled mysteriously and said, "You will be able to see it with your own eyes soon, so I won't disturb your imagination."
"How can the boss feel free to let me come here this time?"
Da Liu saw the unmanned electric car driving into a tunnel in the mountain. This was a cave hall of about more than a thousand square meters.
The entire cave is brightly lit, as bright as day.
The unmanned electric vehicle drove directly to a place with a square grid and stopped.
Hao Ren did not ask Da Liu to get out of the car, but said: "It is precisely because the base has been initially completed that I invite you to come over.
This base is not afraid of a nuclear attack. With this security guarantee, the master can see you with peace of mind without worrying about being hunted down by the Americans if exposed."
Da Liu couldn't help but be surprised. Can this base withstand a nuclear attack?
While I was thinking this, the grid on the ground suddenly sank.
No, it should be running downwards like an elevator.
Outside the unmanned electric car, the surroundings turned snow-white, as if the car was in a snow-white room.
"This is an elevator that leads to a depth of 2,000 meters underground!" Hao Ren explained.
Da Liu was a little shocked. This should be the deepest underground project in the world, right?
It didn't take long. Da Liu felt that more than a minute had passed. There was a slight vibration, and one side suddenly opened.
As the unmanned electric vehicle drove out, Da Liu noticed that it was a hall with an area of at least 5,000 square meters.
Da Liu subconsciously looked up and saw that the dome was more than twenty meters high, which made the entire hall feel very spacious, and he did not feel at all depressed about being underground.
The hall, like the cave hall on the ground, is as bright as day.
The ground is paved with some kind of silver material, and the entire hall seems to be a transportation center.
Liu saw many unmanned electric vehicles exiting the elevator and leaving the lobby in an orderly manner. Apparently there was more than one such elevator.
There are also unmanned electric vehicles that drive into the lobby from some passages and then enter some open elevators.
There are many people with different skin colors in these electric vehicles, and most of them are yellow.
"There are already so many people here? Are those us Tang people?"
Hao Ren smiled and said, "You are the first Tang national to visit this base after it was built."
Da Liu was stunned. There shouldn't be so many non-Tang people in such a secret base.
Suddenly he thought of a possibility and blurted out: "They are all simulation robots?"
"Yes, they are all simulated robots."
"However, they look just like real people, and their walking postures are very natural. They are much better than the 'Xiaobai' household robots we currently sell on the market."
"Of course, seriously speaking, this should be the second generation of 'Xiaobai', a simulated assistant robot with preliminary artificial intelligence."
"Artificial intelligence? To what extent has it been achieved?" Liu knew some R&D projects because he presided over the Mengyuan Technology R&D Center.
So he wasn't too surprised, but he was very curious.
Boss, in more than a year, artificial intelligence has been developed in Africa, a place with little foundation?
Hao Ren smiled and said: "Master said that this is not really artificial intelligence, it still belongs to the category of weak artificial intelligence. For example, they are just the best blue-collar workers."
The unmanned electric vehicle drove along a passage for more than thirty minutes, and then the space suddenly opened up again.
Da Liu opened his mouth instantly, and the scene in front of him was completely shocked.
Is this underground?
This is clearly a city!
Looking up at the dome, there is a clear blue sky at the top. It feels like it is at least a thousand meters high.
A giant ceiling light that looks like the sun is moving very slowly on the dome, obviously it is performing the function of the sun.
The unmanned electric vehicle of Da and Liu stopped just after it came out of a passage. This position was about ten meters higher than the ground in the entire space.
This gave Da Liu the feeling of slightly overlooking the entire underground space.
That's why it's particularly shocking.
"Are you shocked?"
"It's so sci-fi!" Liu exclaimed, "It's incredible that such a large space can be created underground in more than a year, and it can be constructed so well."
"This is the power of robots! They can work around the clock, can work in the harshest environments, and can work together most efficiently."
"I know it must be a robot. Mengyuan Technology's industrial robots can already do many things. If used for construction, the efficiency is definitely dozens of times that of manual labor."
Da Liu looked at this underground world and had a very unreal feeling.
"Still not convinced?" Hao Ren teased.
"Yeah, it feels like I'm in a dream."
"Actually, the first time I saw all this, I was a hundred times more surprised than you. You were too calm and it wasn't fun." Hao Ren shrugged and said.
"I know some of the company's research projects, so I am naturally more accepting of some things."
As Liu spoke, he pointed to some huge tall buildings and said: "This kind of tall buildings should be built using a new type of alumina polymer building material.
Using 3D printing construction methods, it should be completed in a few days. By the way, are these buildings for those assistant robots?"
Hao Ren shook his head and said: "The center of this kind of building that stands tall and tall is the pillar of the entire underground world, supporting the dome and preventing it from falling.
Of course these buildings are not for living, they are all unmanned agricultural factories used to grow and produce various human foods."
"Agricultural factories? All of them?" Da Liu pointed to such towering buildings in the underground world. There seemed to be about a hundred of them.
"Yes, they are all. The one closest to us is for rice cultivation. The annual output of one building can provide for the needs of 100,000 people."
