Chapter 342 The myth of sudden wealth in the space age
Regarding the news about asteroid 241, Future Technology Company did not conceal it. In fact, it could not conceal it. This asteroid is currently the asteroid with the highest mineral value among the asteroids discovered in the universe. The coveted target of many people, and some people have been following and observing this asteroid!
Not long after asteroid 241 left its original orbit, the company "Planet Resources", which is interested in exploiting asteroid resources, wailed in frustration, "Oh shit! Asteroid 241 left its original orbit. Flying towards the inner ring of the solar system! This must be made by the Chinese! Snow! My asteroid 241! My 95.8 trillion dollars! Just fell into the pocket of the Chinese! Why don't you wait for me for 20 years, no, Perhaps in just 10 years, our company's technology will be sufficient to mine asteroid 241!"
The man who spoke was Chris Levich, the chief engineer of Planetary Resources. He was the former Mars mission director of NASA before joining Planetary Resources. Before, a series of priceless asteroids, including asteroid 241, had been regarded as something in the bag, because at that time, the space technology of the United States was far ahead in the world. According to the normal development, these asteroids must be It will belong to the United States, allowing the United States to obtain a huge amount of wealth and resources!
However……
The birth of a future technology company has made the world completely abnormal. Since China announced that it will build the "Chang'e 7" spacecraft, Levich felt that his cheese would not be able to keep, and he was struggling all day long. , suffered a heart attack abruptly. Fortunately, the medical cabin invented by the future technology company allowed him to have a healthy heart again. However, now that the asteroid 241 has fallen into the pocket of the Chinese, he feels that My heart throbbed again!
This is just the beginning, and then, he received a lot of bad news!
"Mr. Levich, Future Technology announced on their official website that they have..."
A middle-aged Caucasian man broke into Levich's office panting, and said with a rather ugly face.
However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Levich, "Does Future Technology Company say that they have captured Asteroid 241? I already know about it!"
"No, not just Asteroid 241, but also Asteroid 2011UW-158, and Asteroid 2000BM19, and..."
The white man spoke the names of 53 asteroids in one breath, and then added, "China...the Chinese government also announced that they had captured a batch of asteroids and gave a list..."
Levich's face turned green. Every time he heard the name of an asteroid, he felt his heart swell a little.
It's about to explode now!
Asteroid 2011UW-158 is a well-known asteroid and a long-awaited target of the "Planetary Resources" company. It is 1101 meters long and 452 meters high. In July 2015, this asteroid moved to the distance At a position of only about 2.4 million kilometers, it caused a huge sensation, and also attracted the observatory on the Canary Islands of Spain to broadcast the event on the web. This is mainly because, according to relevant information, in the core of this asteroid Contains 100 million tons of platinum and other precious metals, worth as much as $5.4 trillion!
Asteroid 2000BM19, worth $3.44 trillion…
Asteroid 1988XB, worth $1.38 trillion…
Asteroid 3200 Phaethon...
Gone, all gone!
In addition to these announced asteroids, other valuable asteroids should have been listed as mining targets by the Chinese, right?
After 11 years of establishment, is the "Planetary Resources" company still necessary?
Although the Chinese were prepared for the asteroid to be plundered by the Chinese as early as when they built the spacecraft, Levich still found it hard to accept when it really happened.
Especially thinking that the "Planetary Resources" company didn't even mine a single asteroid, Levich almost spat out a mouthful of old blood!
This job was such a failure!
"It's all the Chinese's fault, damn Chinese, stole my cheese! And NASA, Schett, spent so much taxpayer's money, employing more than 20,000 staff, and the top With the support of the university, the technology progresses so slowly, and the Chinese are far behind!"
Levich cursed bitterly.
The "Planetary Resources" company is sighing, but the future technology company is boiling!
For this day, the future technology company has made full preparations, collected very comprehensive data, and divided the ownership of these asteroids with the country, and has been preparing until now there are enough spaceships, Just now there was an "Operation Thunder", which wiped out all the proven asteroids with high value!
The results are quite gratifying!
The value of the asteroid 241 exceeds the total revenue of the future technology company in the past four years. This is the myth of getting rich in the space age! That's the beauty of the space age!
"Haha, haha! With these asteroids, our company's assets have multiplied several times in an instant!"
In the scientific research building, Qin Xiaobu couldn't stop laughing. Although he had known about this plan for a long time, he couldn't help but get excited when the plan really succeeded.
"Money is not very important to our company anymore. In the space age, resources come first. Money is just banknotes printed by governments. With these resources, our company's spaceships will increase to 10,000. No problem! Thinking about it makes my blood boil, if aliens are found within the range we can reach, I must fight for a chance to lead the expedition!"
Zhang Zhijian also laughed from ear to ear.
"Interests touch people's hearts, not to mention such a big interest, countries around the world, including our country, cannot be unmoved! As the saying goes, you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others. We must make relevant preparations."
Liu Hai's face was a little dignified.
"Don't worry, no matter who we face, we have enough ability to protect our own interests. Twelve super electromagnetic railguns secretly built on the moon, 523 spaceships, an army of 7.3 million intelligent robots, nuclear fusion atoms Furnaces are all weapons of war. If you want to snatch something from our pockets, it will be fatal. In addition, high-energy laser weapons have been successfully developed in the future laboratory. Due to the energy provided by large-scale nuclear fusion atomic furnaces, the power is very good. At least within the scope of the solar system, there is no opponent yet."
Zhang Wei said, looking very relaxed. In fact, he thinks that Liu Hai’s worries are a bit unnecessary, because the previous series of "muscle show" actions of Future Technology Company have made countries around the world realize the power of Future Technology Company. Unless the brain circuit is short-circuited, they will never provoke Future Technology. company! As for the country, according to his estimation, there are at least ten years of honeymoon period.
