"I really don't know where I dropped it..."

Catherine looked at the vision for Academy City that she had rewritten, then shook her head and put the document on the table.

Although the document was dropped, Catherine was not nervous because the document was just the beginning.

What's more, if someone really makes something like Academy City, Catherine would think it would be good.

Of course, such a plan is a long-term project, and Catherine does not think any country can persist, not even the United States.

"By the way, how's the starcraft thing going?"

"Wait a minute, the information is over here..." Elsa took out a document she had compiled.

Starcraft Company can be said to be the company with which Catherine is most connected.

Looking at the documents, this company is currently cooperating with NASA and developing technology that may be used for space travel.

Space is very dangerous, and there is a lot of preparation work that needs to be done before this.

Apart from anything else, just recording this item is very troublesome.

Because space is in a state of microgravity, if you want to write, original water pens, fountain pens, etc. will definitely not be used. Therefore, it is necessary to research a pen that can be used in space.

——Of course, some people say that pencils can be used. But in fact, pencils are not suitable for use in space. The pointed tips are dangerous and flammable. The graphite residue produced by writing can easily enter the astronauts’ cavities and eyes, and it is easier for electronics to

The device is short circuited.

Such a joke has been circulated "before", but it is just a joke. If you really plan to use a pencil in space, you are asking for death.

——Of course, the space pen has been manufactured in 1965 by Paul Fisher, the inventor of the universal ballpoint pen refill. Now NASA has purchased 400 such pens for use in the space environment.

As for the research cost of the space pen, it is only 2 million, which is not as exaggerated as 10 billion. Only some "conscience" people would say that.

"It seems the situation is not bad."

"I heard that the lunar exploration journey will begin next year... I'm really looking forward to it." Elsa suddenly thought of something she had seen.

"Ah." Compared with history, such a big event has not changed at all, and then she whispered again: "I just don't know if the astronaut is Armstrong..."

“Go online”

Catherine turned on the computer again, while Elsa next to her continued to help Catherine organize the documents.

This computer uses the Phoenix-Stargate system, and the internal version is ver1.012. It can be said to be the last version before the official version... Of course, it will take another one or two years for the Pentium computer to be released.

time, so at this time the system will also undergo a series of tests.

Because of pbok, Catherine has also logged into several recently popular websites.

She first logged into the Decai community, and then she suddenly saw a very strange post.

"What is freedom of speech?"

"Free speech? What is free speech? Free speech means you can scold the president but not your boss for being dissident. The government can only monitor you, but the company can punish you."

"The American system is not the three powers of democracy and freedom at all, but complete corporate rule."

"In the United States, employers can fire you for any reason. Vanessa can use her right to free speech, and her client also has the right to fire her. This is the victory of freedom, do you understand?"

Hey, even if you are a website affiliated with the Democratic Party, is it too much to say this?

And what on earth is going on?

Why did someone suddenly say this?

Looking further down, Catherine understood.

Vanessa was a model, and then she seemed to make some comments attacking the federal government, and then... she was fired.

But Vanessa is a recent college graduate. She has an Internet ID, so she logged into the Internet and complained here.

Hence, the words we have now.

Catherine shook her head. This woman named Vanessa is really sad, but she also has something. Why is she doing something bad and attacking the federal government? Do you think this is the 21st century?

After exiting the post, Catherine started browsing the Decai forum again.

She found that the entire Decay community was filled with a kind of anger towards society. If she used a more fashionable term to describe it, it would be "this is a gathering place for angry youths."

"The name of this forum..."

Dogs see people with their eyes...

"What's wrong with the forum? Is there a problem?"

Elsa didn't seem to understand.

"No, it's nothing."

The other party doesn’t understand Chinese, so it’s difficult to understand some examples, right?

"The dog-eye-watching forum of the Decai community... this is not a good place. People here only complain and complain, which makes people feel disgusting." Elsa obviously doesn't like it here.

"Complaining is a common problem... To be precise, they don't want to contribute but want to get more, or they imagine that they will become a vested interest in the situation. So this website should be a concentration camp for losers, right?"

Catherine seemed to have thought of something.

"Look, there are sensible people here." Catherine suddenly found a post.

"Do not believe those cosmopolitans, for in their writings they go to distant places to seek obligations that they disdain to fulfill around them. Such philosophers love the Tartars in order not to love them

Neighbors.——Rousseau's "Emile"

Look at this ID again, the Immortal Gregory.

"It was actually posted by Gregory."

Looking again, this post seems to be in response to a discussion caused by someone raising some posts about Soviet issues.

"By the way, Gregory himself seems to have opened a website?" Elsa seemed to have thought of something: "It seems to be called Tianya..."

"Yeah?"

Gregory is just a newcomer who has just arrived. Although he is now the team leader of Blizzard Entertainment's online games, Catherine does not pay too much attention to him. She just pays more attention to him than others. But here

Gregory may not be the original Gregory. Because such a forum requires additional registration, the ID and login ID are different.

Only in Catherine's official forum, the nickname of id is universal.

"Enet is the cia's forum, so I won't go there. Well... let's go to Tianya and have a look." After all, it was a forum established by employees of her own company. Thinking of this, Catherine wanted to go there and have a look.

But at this moment, the phone rang.

"Miss Edson, your friend is looking for you..."

After picking up the phone, it was Lisa.

"Kate, long time no see." Lisa's voice was a little tired, but she sounded very excited.

"Well, what's wrong?" Catherine asked.

"Some Japanese people want to buy from me, it's the RU gel coat from last time...so I have a little problem..."

Catherine, who has been to Japan, is obviously the best consultant.

"What exactly happened?"

"I heard that rubber coats are very popular in Japan recently, but because the patent belongs to Jenny, and no one understands the production process, so Japan now only has very inferior rubber coats. But not long ago, some people

Found Jenny."

But that person didn't know that as early as last year, Jenny had licensed the patent for RU gel coat to Angel Clothing Design Company.

"So he's looking for you again?"

"Yes. So I want to ask what we should pay attention to when dealing with the Japanese... These people look very cunning, and Uncle Homan has always told us to be vigilant."

Although Americans' hatred of the Japanese is not as strong as it was in the 1970s and 1980s, most people do not like the Japanese. Of course, Americans have a strong ability to accept culture, and if they don't like it, they don't like it, but

When we actually negotiate, it's a completely different story.

"The most important thing is that the Japanese cannot copy it." Catherine said: "On this point, completely blocking the other side from the patent aspect is the best way."

The Japanese are very good at bypassing patent cases by "finding new ways", but if they have a rich patent registration team, everything will be different.

"Thank you so much" Lisa seemed to let go of a big thing.

"It doesn't matter. After all, I am also one of the shareholders, and Angel Fashion Design Company is about to go public. Of course I have to think about the interests of the company." Catherine said with a smile.

"Yeah. But speaking of it, this Japanese request is really strange. It not only requires us to reduce our waist circumference, but also requires us to thicken our legs... Do Japanese people really have such short legs?" Lisa

There seems to be some resentment towards the height of Japanese people.

Japanese women in the real world are not like those in the two-dimensional world, with black silk and slender legs.

Most of the legs of Japanese women are elephant legs, at least six out of ten are like this. Compared with women from several surrounding countries, the legs of Japanese women are thicker and shorter.

In the 21st century, the women with thin legs often seen in love action movies are not necessarily native women, but more often come from South Korea and China. Most of them are Koreans... The most famous one is

Ran Muto, who is said to have made 300 romance action movies a year, was originally named Chaohe Ran, and she is Korean.

"Because of the Japanese habit of kneeling and sitting, Japanese women all have thick and short legs, basically pigeon-toed legs. So this is not surprising." Catherine explained to Lisa.

However, there seems to be another theory that Japanese women’s thick legs are due to wearing too many miniskirts. Catherine can veto this point. Catherine sometimes wears miniskirts in winter, but her legs are very well-proportioned, and she even has a hint of tan.

There are no traces.

"No wonder the Japanese businessman asked for it..."

In fact, if Jenny hadn't licensed the use of this rubber to the company, the Japanese could have chosen to let Jenny license the patent and produce it themselves.

"Unless you want to be a model and start training from a young age, it's not easy to find naturally slender legs in Japan..."

Not only is it not easy...
