Guide to Galactic Dominance

Chapter 48 The delegation sets off

On Earth, there was fierce competition for the quota of thirty people to go to Iridium Ruyi City. In the end, the five gangsters relied on their own strong pressure to win one-third of the thirty-person quota. Each permanent member of the Security Council can send one diplomat and one scientist. The five gangsters also obtained the remaining twenty spots. Have certain dominant influence.

During this day, diplomats and scientists from various countries who were preparing to join the visiting delegation hurriedly boarded the plane to New York. During this process, the Americans originally wanted to use underhanded tactics to restrict the entry of diplomats and scientists from other countries, leaving a large number of vacant places in the visiting delegation, which could be filled with people from their own countries. However, this move was unanimously protested by various countries, and Bai Zhongqi immediately reprimanded the Americans for their behavior. In the end, the United States had to send only two people to participate in the visiting delegation.

At two o'clock in the afternoon Eastern Time, 30 members of the delegation were waiting eagerly in front of the United Nations Headquarters. Zhong Zhiyan, the representative of Country C to the United Nations, participated in the delegation as a diplomat of Country C. The other person was Academician Ding, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a senior advisor of the Extraterrestrial Contact Countermeasures Office, who came from China overnight.

Zhong Zhiyan quietly discussed with Academician Ding: "Academician Ding, this time we are going to the space city of the Iridium people. On the one hand, we want to have a more intuitive understanding of the civilizational achievements of Iridium technology, and on the other hand, we want to follow the civilization as much as possible. Deepen the relationship with the head of state of Iridium, Bai Zhongqi. Domestic surveys show that Bai Zhongqi’s political stance is still more inclined to our country. If we can win his support for our country, our country will have the opportunity to obtain technology that far exceeds the current level of the earth. For our country, It is crucial to overtake the road and even achieve the country’s leapfrog development.”

Although Academician Ding is not particularly concerned about politics, it is impossible for him to be completely ignorant of politics if he can reach the high position of academician. He thought for a while and said: "Are we taking it for granted now? It is true that this alien head of state is our countryman, but after all, he was reborn in our country with his previous memories. In terms of national identity, he should still identify more with it. His alien home country, not to mention he is still the head of state of this empire. We don’t know exactly what Bai Zhongqi’s plans are. In short, we can only contact him first to see.”

Zhong Zhiyan nodded and said, "Yes, so during this visit, we must try our best to create opportunities to have separate talks with Bai Zhongqi or representatives from Iridium."

Not long after, an Iridium landing craft appeared from the sky, growing from small to large. This time, the Iridium spacecraft did not perform optical stealth at all, so people on the ground could see clearly. At this time, not only in front of the United Nations Headquarters, but also people from the visiting delegation can see it. People who received the news yesterday also came to watch the excitement near the United Nations Headquarters. Some people even traveled thousands of miles from other regions and countries to New York to see the appearance of the alien spacecraft with their own eyes.

Although this landing craft is not an advanced thing in the Iridium United Empire, its level of science fiction has made many onlookers feel that the trip is worthwhile. Compared with the Bibo boat, this landing craft is actually a civilian transportation boat, specially used for planetary orbital facilities and planetary ground transportation. By analogy with the current transportation on earth, it is roughly equivalent to long-distance buses.

This "long-distance bus" is different from the rugby-shaped boat of the blue wave boat. It is directly shaped like a round pancake, which makes it look very similar to a flying saucer. However, its flight principle is not that of a flying saucer, it is still the Iridium anti-gravity system. The round pie-shaped design allows it to obtain a relatively large internal space and provide passengers with a better riding experience without feeling constrained like a real long-distance bus. The standard rail transit boat can carry up to 1,000 people, with a total of three floors. The first floor is the driving and mechanical cabin, and the lower two floors are the passenger cabin. The space is much larger than the first class cabin of an airplane. Passengers can even lie down directly on the chair. The distance between the chairs is also very large, so passengers who don't want to sit can move around the cabin freely. The ultra-stable flight makes it almost impossible for people to feel that the transport boat is moving, and it will not be knocked over.

After the rail transit boat landed steadily on the ground, the gangway was lowered, and a very dignified-looking woman stepped down, who was actually the flight attendant of the transit boat. Of course, she is not a real person, but an android.

"Welcome to all members of the delegation to board this flight of 'Iridium Express'. I am your flight attendant and will serve you wholeheartedly. According to the list of members of the delegation provided by the United Nations, we will verify the identity of each member , you can board the ship after the verification is completed." The behavior of this android flight attendant is not much different from the flight attendants of airlines on earth, which also made a group of earth cannons marvel and find it quite interesting.

The next British diplomat raised his hand and asked: "Miss, it is a great honor to participate in this visit. I have a question, do you allow us to bring a Chinese translator? It seems that you do not provide this Serve."

The British plan is not unusual; several countries have the same approach.

The Iridium android flight attendant responded with a smile: "I'm sorry, sir, the number of visiting delegation members is not allowed to be changed. However, regarding the issue of language barriers, we will issue instant translation tools to you to meet your needs."

Several more female flight attendants with the same pretty faces and slender figures got off the boat, holding a small frame with something like a Bluetooth headset inside.

The chief flight attendant demonstrated how to hang the instant translation tool on the ears of all members of the delegation and said: "Set the target language for translation. No matter what language the other party uses, the translator can complete the translation in real time."

Some diplomats and scientists who are at least forty or fifty years old are like children getting toys. Originally, these instant translation tools seemed extremely high-end, and the materials they were made of were hard to figure out. After the setting is completed and hung on the ear, it can actually translate every language spoken by the other party in real time. Moreover, this kind of translation is completely different from the technical content of those Gu Ge translations on the earth. It can analyze the meaning according to the context, and Able to achieve near-absolute accuracy.

It is just a small thing, and a group of visiting group members can already have a glimpse of the power of Iridium technology. The technology that the people on earth have spent many years unable to perfect seems to be a gadget that can be made casually with a wave of the hand to the Iridium people.

Japanese scientist Koji Madoka asked excitedly: "Excuse me, after this visit, will this instant translation tool be taken back?"

The flight attendant smiled solemnly and said, "This can be regarded as a small gift from the United Empire to the visiting group."

Everyone was excited. Perhaps by analyzing this small instant translation tool, countries could achieve certain breakthroughs in science and technology.

However, Bai Zhongqi dismissed this. After they dismantled this thing, they would find that there were no integrated circuits or wires that they knew about. If they dismantled this thing, it would be over. People on earth would not be there anymore. Without relevant knowledge, it is impossible to obtain any technology related to this device through disassembly or reverse engineering. It's like asking a group of monkeys to dismantle a smartphone. After disassembling it, they don't know what's inside, let alone how to build it.
