My science and technology museum

"Am I reading that right? Such a big project actually has to be broadcast live. Oh my God!"

"This is definitely an unprecedented live broadcast event. I'm afraid it will set a record for the longest live broadcast and the most popular live broadcast room. After all, no one can refuse digging machines."

"Future technology is so confident. It seems that they may actually build a space elevator. I don't know why, but I suddenly became a little bit excited. Maybe space travel is just around the corner."

"If you want to start a live broadcast, I will definitely watch it. This is no better than those anchors who have a tenth level of beauty."

"It's better not to speak too soon. Future Technology is gaining popularity now, but if the final project fails, it will be really embarrassing for Dafa."

…

After Future Technology announced that it would launch a global 24/7 live broadcast of the construction process of the space elevator, major platforms and websites at home and abroad immediately launched heated discussions. No one expected that Future Technology would suddenly make such a decision.

Although this has made many people look forward to it and have confidence in the space elevator project, many people have also expressed concerns.

They are afraid that if something goes wrong in the final project, the reputation that Future Technology has accumulated over the years will be lost, and it will become a reason for overseas countries to ridicule the domestic aerospace industry.

But there is no doubt that this has attracted the attention of many netizens.

As a result, almost no one is talking about Marsne's Space Exploration Technology Company and its plans to launch a spacecraft to the moon again next April.

The world's eyes are on the space elevator.

A few days later.

When hundreds of ships including the heavy-duty dredger engineering ships mobilized from across the country, including the Tiankun and the Tianjing, arrived in the waters where the artificial islands are located, this super project officially began.

at the same time.

With the high expectations of users around the world, the live broadcast was also launched simultaneously.

In order to earn as much influence as possible through this global live broadcast, Xu Lei can be said to have spent a lot of money on this matter, just to ensure that the live broadcast effect will give users a better viewing experience.

If anyone is staying at the scene at this moment, they will definitely find a warship among the many engineering ships.

It looks out of place when you look at it.

Under normal circumstances, a fleet composed of aircraft carriers should cruise in nearby waters to ensure the progress of the project. It is indeed strange for a warship like this to stay directly at the construction site.

In fact, this warship is officially a live broadcast ship specially arranged by Xu Lei. Not only is it equipped with a quantum relay station and drone live broadcast equipment, it also borrows several reporters from the main station, allowing them to take turns to explain and mobilize the live broadcast at regular intervals throughout the process. room atmosphere.

It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of card has never happened even when the Chinese Academy of Sciences was conducting projects.

It is also worth mentioning that in order to ensure harmony in the live broadcast room, domestic users and overseas users belong to two live broadcast screens.

Otherwise, I'm afraid everyone will be banned if they argue.

Tuesday, November 4, 2025.

Magic City.

Guo Xin was very unconvinced today.

As a senior aerospace enthusiast, folk theory expert and media commentator, he never believed that a space elevator was a feasible project.

In his view, the space agency chose to cooperate with Future Technology to build a space elevator and temporarily stopped the development of its original heavy-lift launch vehicle. This was an extremely wrong and stupid operation.

For this reason, when the news first came out, he made a video to respond harshly.

Although he was attacked by many users, some people also chose to support his views, so that the video comment area showed a polarization trend.

But these are not the point.

The point is that his videos have become popular, and even the number of fans, which has not changed for a long time, has increased significantly.

Seeing that there was a profit to be made, he became very excited and thought that this was an opportunity for him to rejuvenate his career. So in the following days, he asked for a long leave from the company and made several similar videos.

Using the knowledge he possesses, he has analyzed from all angles to prove that the space elevator cannot be realized, and the space agency should re-study heavy-lift launch vehicles.

And in order to appeal to users' empathy, he also made a lot of harsh words, threatening that if future technology can create a space elevator, he will eat the metabolism of his own dog until he is full.

But I have to say that his popularity is really good. Several of the videos he released have achieved high views, and he has even gradually refined his fans, attracting many users who think that Future Technology has been too arrogant this time and made a mistake. .

In addition, he analyzed based on existing technical knowledge and did not maliciously slander or spread rumors, so he is not afraid of future technology.

According to his plan, today he wants to watch the live broadcast content, and then make a new video by taking screenshots from it. It is best to find the errors that occurred during the construction process, so that his character can be more stable, and at the same time, fans can More sticky.

"I want to see what tricks the live broadcast can do. Everything we do now is just a waste of resources."

In a study room in a certain community, Guo Xin took out his holographic intelligent quantum terminal device and thought about it secretly while clicking into the live broadcast room.

Speaking of which, he had already made an appointment to accompany his children to the amusement park today, but in order to wait for this live broadcast that would not stop, he persuaded his wife to take their son there alone.

So no matter what, you have to find enough material to make a video.

Although the domestic live broadcast room has not started yet, a large number of users have already flooded into the live broadcast room. The number of people in the upper left corner has quickly climbed to tens of millions visible to the naked eye.

And it continues to rise.

As for the barrage update frequency, it is extremely fast, and everyone is discussing it among themselves.

That is to say, today's quantum network is fast enough, otherwise the live broadcast room may have collapsed before the live broadcast has started.

"coming."

"When does the live broadcast start?"

"I finally have something to read after get off work every day."

"Hope everything goes well."

"I don't know how to put it, but it always feels like it's not that easy."

Guo Xin did not specifically check the barrages in the live broadcast room, his eyes were always fixed on the time display.

Ten o'clock in the morning.

As the advertised start time of the live broadcast arrived, the originally dark live broadcast room finally appeared, and the title of the live broadcast room was updated.

"It takes nine months to build Dengtian Island, and everyone will supervise it~"

The so-called Landing Island is exactly the name Xu Lei gave to this super-large artificial island, and its meaning is completely literal. Simply put, it is an island that can truly allow humans to ascend to space.

And just when the live broadcast screen appeared in front of the audience, the barrage suddenly appeared for a few seconds, and then refreshed explosively.

Because everyone was restrained.

A heavy dredger with a body length of more than one hundred meters and a width of more than 20 meters, equipped with dredging equipment and giant reamers, its numerical advantage is not even inferior to that of a complete aircraft carrier fleet, not to mention that there are more Transport ships and engineering ships were almost densely packed covering the entire surrounding sea area.

This strong visual impact left the audience unable to react at all.

The expressions in front of the screen were dull.

No one expected that Future Technology would make such a big move and mobilize all the heavy dredgers from across the country.

At this time, the audience has no worries that the landing on Tiantian Island will not be completed on time, because so many ships are the greatest confidence.

Especially when so many dredgers entered working mode at the same time, and the highest sediment was exposed to the sea in a short period of time, coupled with the introduction and explanation of the main station reporter, the popularity of the live broadcast room reached its peak.

More and more people have confidence in the space elevator project.

“This is called infrastructure construction, it’s simply a marvelous workmanship!”

"This is the first time I have seen so many island-building artifacts working at the same time. The future technology is awesome."

“It feels like it will be done in less than nine months.”

"This is much more exciting than an excavator."

"I will come here regularly every day to check in and witness the completion of the domestic space elevator together."

"Sit down, Ji Cao."

"My sister asked me why I was kneeling on the sofa to watch the live broadcast."

The audience in the domestic live broadcast room was excited and unable to control their emotions, while the overseas live broadcast room was just stunned!

"Omag, is this really something that humans can do? I'm afraid only God can accomplish it."

"These guys are simply giant steel beasts, so powerful."

"The speed is too fast. It doesn't take long for the sediment at the highest point to be higher than the sea surface. It's a complete miracle, isn't it?"

"Why don't we have such a strong construction team?"

"If a space elevator can really be built, then I believe only future technology can do it."

I don’t know how much time has passed.

When Guo Xin withdrew his gaze from the live broadcast room, his face still maintained an expression of disbelief: "How is this possible? Is it true that future technology is sure to build a space elevator?"

He understood that the need to mobilize so many heavy ships must be related to the above, and this kind of behavior that almost mobilized the entire country to build a project did not look like it would fail. After all, if there was not enough confidence, I am afraid that the above It won't be supported to this extent.

This made Guo Xin doubt his own judgment.

"It seems that this project is far from as simple as I thought!"

After thinking about it for more than ten seconds, he finally said this with emotion, and then turned his attention back to the live broadcast room.

He planned to change his views and recreate a video to express his feelings and see how the audience would react.

It is also worth mentioning that while audiences around the world were watching the live broadcast, Liu Gaowen, who was sent by Xu Lei on the Tiankun dredger located in the center of the sea area of ​​​​Dengtian Island, was waiting with a serious look on his face.

Because the construction of the ground station also includes a tower that is more than ten kilometers high.

This tower is divided into two parts: the ground and the seabed. In order to maintain stability, the seabed part needs to be increased appropriately and buried during the construction of the artificial island. This can also reduce seawater erosion.

Liu Gaowen is responsible for the construction of this undersea tower, ensuring that there will be no mistakes and that it will be carried out in accordance with Xu Lei's drawings.

"The construction speed of Dengtian Island has been temporarily slowed down in the past few days. We will wait for the materials for the tower to be delivered."

In the main control room of the Tiankun heavy dredger, Liu Gaowen calculated the efficiency of each vessel and quickly told the engineering staff beside him in a deep voice.

The tower is the most important component of the ground station and is also directly connected to the cable car. Its quality is related to whether the space elevator can operate smoothly after it is completed.

So its material requirements are extremely high.

It needs to have sufficient strength and corrosion resistance.

For this purpose, Xu Lei deliberately used a special alloy material developed by Gu Sanlin's team at the research center. Its performance is almost the same as the core skeleton of Xingtong's body. From this point alone, you can imagine the amount of money it will cost.

I'm afraid that only future technology can withstand it if we look around the world.

If it were any other company, they probably wouldn't even be able to build a ground station.

But precisely for this reason, even if the company has stepped up the production of materials required for the tower, the transportation progress cannot be compared with the efficiency of island construction.

After all, during the construction of the central area, the tower's submarine structure must be buried while filling with sand. No matter which process is fast or slow, it will lead to serious quality problems in the project.

Liu Gaowen cannot afford this kind of responsibility.

It is no exaggeration to say that he has no regrets in his life for having the opportunity to participate in this kind of project. Naturally, he is extremely grateful to Xu Lei. In this case, he must be responsible for the quality of the project.

Therefore, even if the progress of island building is slowed down.

Anyway, according to the existing heavy engineering ships, the construction of the Dengtian Island will not be delayed by ten months at the latest, which is completely sufficient in terms of time.

Don't worry about this.

Besides, there are so many viewers around the world watching. If something happens, it will directly disgrace Future Technology internationally.

The main ground station, Range Rover Spaceport, is being developed simultaneously. As long as it can be completed within one year, the final splicing will not take too long.

The person in charge next to him had no objections to Liu Gaowen's arrangement and immediately passed on the order to slow down the ship slightly and wait patiently for the seabed part of the tower to be transported.

"I understand Liu Gong."

Soon as the next person in charge took over the task and left, Liu Gaowen's eyes turned to the control screen in front of him again.

No intention of slacking off at all.

It can only be said that Xu Lei's choice to let Liu Gaowen be responsible for the construction of the ground station was a very correct choice.

Let’s talk about overseas.

Originally, Marsne and Hayden returned to Rover Island from Washington State and were preparing to focus all their energy on the launch mission to ensure the successful launch of the space shuttle in April next year and send their own astronauts to the moon again, but they happened to At this time, Future Technology launched a global live broadcast for 20 hours non-stop, which just made them lose any popularity.

When the key was first informed that Future Technology and Yanfang were going to build a space elevator, they didn't take it to heart at all and thought the project was completely impossible.

But now Future Technology is conducting live broadcasts in such a high-profile manner, hoping that people all over the world will know about their space elevator plan. If they are not confident, they may not choose to live broadcast.

Faced with this situation, they are somewhat worried that the space elevator will actually be built.

Because as professionals in the aerospace industry, no one understands the powerful role of space elevators better than them. If future technology truly masters space elevators, the construction of lunar bases and even Mars bases will be completed in a very short time.

If they deploy near-Earth and near-lunar spaceports and ultra-large laser weapons, they will completely lose their right to speak.

We can only watch the world structure change.

For this reason, although Hayden did not immediately return to Washington to report to Tripp, he still called Marsne over and held an emergency meeting to discuss the matter.

"Have you watched the live broadcast about future technology? Let me know what you think. The general manager is still waiting for my report."

Luo Fuzhou.

NASA's Kendi Space Center.

In the huge space, Hayden stood on the elevated platform and looked at the space shuttle being repaired not far away, and asked Marsen next to him about the live broadcast of the space elevator construction process.

Although Masen is very reluctant to admit it, based on his previous experience in dealing with future technologies, Xu Lei is able to have such confidence to conduct live broadcasts on a global scale. I am afraid that in all likelihood, he is relatively confident in this project.

After a slight hesitation, he finally chose to speak: "I watched the live broadcast. They should be serious this time. Maybe this Xu Lei has mastered some of the core technologies of the space elevator."

"We really need to have a hunch in this regard." Hayden agreed with Marsen's thoughts: "Future technology is really a formidable opponent!"

The words just fell.

Then he added: "Neon has been researching without a clue for so many years, but they started construction so easily. It's really incredible."

After hearing what Hayden said, Masen's face suddenly looked gloomy.

The Tesla new energy vehicle brand that I was proud of was disrupted by the future technology Xingyuan Automobile. Today, it has basically existed in name only. I finally found a chance to turn around again, and I can turn around with the help of my own space exploration technology company. The situation even turned against Future Technology. How could he be willing to miss this opportunity?

The main thing is that he understands very well that if he can't gain the upper hand this time, then he may have to lie down in the future.

As his mind was running rapidly, a very bold idea suddenly appeared in his mind.

"I do have a good proposal." Masen put away the expression on his face and looked at Hayden pretending to be calm: "This artificial island of Future Technology is built on the equator and is located in the southern sea. If we If it attacks, the success rate will be very high.”

Marsne's idea is simple.

Since there is no way to surpass future technology in terms of technical means, then we should start directly with force.

As long as the ground station of the space elevator is destroyed by then, there will be no threat to their moon base plan.

I have to say that Masen's proposal was well thought out. After all, as a pure businessman, he would not think too much about follow-up issues.

But Hayden is completely different.

As the head of the space agency, he knew very well that if the ground station of the space elevator was attacked, the world would instantly fall into war. Moreover, with the current disparity in force between the two sides, they really might not be able to win.

So I rejected the proposal without much thought.

"I hope you don't have similar thoughts." Hayden turned around when he heard the sound and said to Marsn very seriously: "The other party has sent an aircraft carrier fleet to cruise around this artificial island, and they also have Equipped with sixth-generation fighters and nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, as well as quantum computing technology mastered by future technology, we will only be the ones to completely fall out and suffer at this time."

"If future technology can really create a space elevator, then I'm afraid I have to convince the general to choose to cooperate with Yanfang to jointly develop lunar resources." The last sentence was his emotion to himself.

After all, with the space elevator, the aerospace technology they possess is nothing. The construction speed of their lunar base is certainly incomparable to future technology.

In this case, it is undoubtedly a more suitable way to actively choose to cooperate and first use the space elevator of future technology to build their own lunar base.

But these words made Masen panic.

If the space agency chooses to cooperate with Future Technology, it will be equivalent to their Space Exploration Technology Company being directly kicked out.

This result is unacceptable to Masen in any case.

With his mind running at high speed, he quickly spoke to save himself: "Sir Hayden, don't forget that the most critical issue in the space elevator is the cable material. Even if future technology can really create a space elevator, I am afraid that with the current level of material development, the cable will not be able to be used at all." Can’t withstand a few transports.”

"Once it breaks, the space elevator will lose its function and it will not affect us."

"Even if we take a step back, their space elevator can really transport for a long time. It won't be too late for us to join forces with other forces to ask for cooperation."

Originally, Hayden did have the idea of ​​​​cooperating, but after listening to Marsen's words, it seemed to make sense.

My mind couldn't help but become more active.

The biggest advantage of the space elevator is that it can be used to transport supplies for a long time. However, if the cable breaks as Marsen said, most of its functions will be basically lost.

Because you can’t just replace the cable after a few uses.

What's more critical is that for a cable with a length of 40,000 kilometers, the environment of each section is different, and the greater the difference in values, the more likely problems will occur.

It is possible that the test data obtained in the laboratory will be different when used in actual applications.

Thinking of this, Hayden immediately made a decision: "What you said makes some sense. I will report this matter to the commander-in-chief immediately. As for how to make a decision, just listen to the commander-in-chief."

After finally saying this, he saw him hurriedly returning to the office to prepare for travel.

As for Marsen, looking at Hayden's back at this time, his frown finally relaxed. He believed that the general would definitely adopt this suggestion.

After all, if the two sides cooperate, they will be on the same level, and how can they build super-large laser weapons to crush them by force, so they will definitely try it as long as there is still a chance.

Compared with the worried overseas parties, Xu Lei is currently immersed in the joy of the rapid increase in influence.

Things developed almost exactly as he expected. After the live broadcast was officially launched, he found that the influence of the Science and Technology Museum's booth was growing significantly, and at this rate, when the main body of the space elevator was completely completed, the impact was estimated to be The power can also reach five million points to unlock new technological exhibits.
