America is a big bunk bed between the north and the south, and there are no mountains to block the cold air from the north, so the cold air from the north can sweep all the way.

The farthest can reach Ocala, Florida.

The Cape Canaveral launch site is located on the east-central coast of Florida.

Under the influence of the cold air, the sky here is a little gloomy.

The Cosmic God rocket turned into light, and in an instant, it even illuminated the land.

It feels like a nuclear bomb exploded in front of you.

A brief flash of white light, followed by the sound of the explosion and the shock wave.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the shock wave came on, blowing up the hair of the female reporter standing in front and reporting the news loudly, and also blowing her pale.

The shock wave and the sound swept through, and more than 10 seconds passed before the beautiful female reporter reacted. She turned around and shouted to the photographer behind her: "Turn off the broadcast quickly."

Faced with his companion's shouting, the photographer shrugged helplessly. The picture had already been turned out. It was too late to stop it now.

Watching her companion's actions, the female reporter looked back at the direction of the explosion. After the white light flashed, the launch pad in the distance had disappeared, replaced by billowing smoke.

With a determined heart, the female reporter waved her hand: "Let's go and grab the first-hand news."

Unfortunately, she was still a step late. Her colleagues who turned around faster than her were already carrying cameras and running towards the launch pad in the distance.

Launch center.

Greb stared at all this in a daze, looking at the billowing smoke and the burning wreckage under the smoke.

After staring for a while, he collapsed to the ground powerlessly, completely unable to believe it all.

Next to him, Holm was like a madman, constantly turning around in front of the console, constantly fiddling with the control buttons, and constantly talking:

"Impossible, how could it be possible? All the feedback is normal, how could it explode?"

"No, no!"

"There is a problem, there is definitely a problem here."

After the initial flurry, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he rushed to the monitoring room next to the command center at the fastest speed.

For some reason, the monitoring room was empty, only the dripping sound of the equipment was constantly echoing.

With the light coming in from the window, Holm found the corresponding surveillance tape and played it back.

Playing it back frame by frame.

Finally, he saw what he wanted to see.

Seeing this clearly, he took out the tape with the surveillance video, and at this moment, footsteps came from behind him.

When he heard the footsteps, he didn't even turn his head and said directly:

"It has nothing to do with us. The cause of the explosion was the rocket!"

After speaking, he turned around.

The moment he turned around, he realized that it was not Greb behind him, nor was it a staff member of the monitoring room, but a man wearing a mask, a hat, and a white coat.

The moment Holm turned around, the man suddenly raised his hand, and in his hand, there was a small pistol.

The other party moved very quickly, and the gun in his hand was inserted into Holm's mouth without bias. The next second, the trigger was pulled.

Blood flew out from the back of Holm's head, and his body lay down weakly.

The killer also let go of his hand at this moment, and at the same time grabbed Holm's right hand and pressed it on the pistol, pretending to commit suicide.

After doing all this, the killer calmly took out the master tape in the monitoring room, and disappeared at the door with the monitoring master tape.

…………

Rheinsteel.

Looking at the rocket that exploded into a fireball, the several big men guarding in front of the monitor did not dare to breathe, and all stared at the monitor eagerly.

At this moment, even breathing stopped.

After a while, the breathing sounded again, but this breathing sound was just like the broken fan in the steel smelting workshop, with some breath and some breath.

It took five or six minutes for the breathing of several people to become smooth and bold again.

Qian Jianguo picked up the wine glass in front of him, drank the beer in one gulp, poured another glass, drank it in another gulp, and then said carefully in a tone of surviving a disaster:

"This is too terrifying!"

"I'm afraid that a small nuclear bomb is only this powerful."

His words were like a switch, turning on the activity switch of everyone present at this moment, making them active again and opening the chatterbox.

Miao Yuan patted his chest, turned his head and looked at Xiang Baichuan, and warned:

"Stay away from me when you are testing. I am still young and don't want to die."

"But what are these Americans doing? I have seen rockets explode after taking off, and I have seen rockets explode after ignition on the launch pad, but I have never seen one explode as soon as it flew off the launch pad."

Stuffing a pig ear into his mouth, as the person with the highest title present, Lou Lan chewed the pig ear and drank wine while explaining:

"There is a problem with this rocket."

"They are using the Atlas 5 rocket. This shape should be the Centaur."

"The first section of this rocket is a universal core thruster, and the main engine uses the Russian RD-180 engine. This main engine can provide about 4,000 kilonewtons of thrust."

"This standard part has a diameter of 3.8 meters and a length of 32.5 meters. It can be loaded with 284,450 kilograms of liquid fuel. These fuels can make the thruster work for about 4 minutes."

"The second section is the non-standard section, which is the place used to distinguish Akinna D from Centauri."

"The Centaur has a diameter of 1.68 meters and uses two Pratt \u0026 Whitney RL10A-4-2 engines. The two engines can produce a total thrust of approximately 200 kilonewtons."

"The third quarter is the warehouse."

"In general rocket accidents, the problem mainly lies in the rocket engine. This place needs to carry high temperature and high pressure, so it is easy for problems to occur."

"The explosion also came from this place."

"But the problem is, if you pay attention to this explosion, you can see that the explosion first occurred in the middle of the rocket, near the first section and the second section."

"To use our customary terminology, it's fried halfway up the middle."

"This location mainly contains some connections and equipment for feedback signals. This place generally won't explode."

"If it explodes, it will explode from the position of the rocket engine in the second stage, thus affecting the first stage."

Halfway through the explanation, Lou Lan stopped talking, stretched his chopsticks towards the peanuts, picked up one and threw it into his mouth.

The tongue collided with the peanuts, and the salt wrapped in the peanuts touched the tongue in an instant.

Bah bah bah!

After rinsing his mouth with beer, Loulan pushed the peanuts aside and continued to explain:

"And there is nothing wrong with the flight trajectory of this rocket. It can be said that it exploded without warning."

"Two conclusions can be drawn from this. The first is that there is a problem with the configuration of this rocket."

"But the problem is that the Atlas rocket is an old rocket that has been launched many times. General Dynamics has not made major changes to this rocket in recent years, so the configuration problems can almost be eliminated."

"The remaining point is that there is something wrong with the rocket itself."

"There is a high probability that someone has tampered with it."

After listening to his analysis, Miao Yuan and the others nodded, and then they turned their attention to Lin Yu, hoping to hear some analysis from the boss' mouth.

After all, they are just pure researchers, and their boss, in addition to his own research capabilities, is also a person who has been listed in the staff department and is focused on training.

This kind of incident, where you can tell there is something fishy inside as soon as you hear it, requires professionals like them to analyze it in order to figure out the twists and turns inside.

Sensing the gazes of several people, Lin Yu put down his chopsticks, but did not speak. Instead, he picked up the wine glass next to him and raised it:

"cheers!"

His sudden movement surprised several others, but they quickly reacted and raised their wine glasses.

"cheers!"

bite!

Several glasses collided, making a crisp sound. After clinking the glasses, he drank the wine in one gulp. Lin Yu grabbed a handful of peanuts from the plate with peanuts and ate them while explaining:

"Avenal Company is a new company with no foundation and no network of relationships."

"I don't know if it was the White Gloves introduced by one of America's senior executives."

"But it's clear they were targeted."

"America's Leo Project can steadily draw money from America's Department of Defense. The money may not be much once or twice, but it is better because it is a steady flow of money."

"As long as you add the number of times and time, you can calculate how much profit this is."

"It's very worthwhile to use a rocket to create public opinion and pry this piece of fat into your own mouth."

"If I were to judge, this is a standard business war."

"Huh?" The outrageous explanation and outrageous evaluation made several people present subconsciously widen their eyes and look back at the monitor with expressions of disbelief.

On the monitor, the picture has been interrupted and has been cut to the striptease channel.

The long white legs are flying around in the monitor.

After a casual glance, Xiang Baichuan turned his attention to Lin Yu and asked, "Isn't it possible?"

"Nothing is impossible." Lin Yu raised his cup: "Cheers!"

After drinking the beer in the cup again, he explained with a smile:

"Business warfare in the movie relies on one's own clever brain to find one's own strengths, find the enemy's weaknesses, and restrain each other to defeat the opponent."

"But movies require logic, the real world doesn't."

"Like Guangdong Province, their favorite business wars are to burn the rival company's money tree to death, cut off the power to the rival company's Feng Shui fish, and when waiting for the rival company's order, go to the kitchen to add extra spicy food."

"I've also heard that some of them directly pulled the switch and clamped the wires when testing the production line of a rival company."

"As for large international companies, especially those involved in arms, they pay more attention to simplicity when it comes to business wars."

"Usually, we just send out killers directly to kill the people on the other side, or we use the other side's products to kill people directly in public."

"We will meet in the future. When we do, I can ask others to give you first-hand information."

"It's Chinese New Year, don't talk about these unhappy things. Come, celebrate America. People set off a big firework for us. This opportunity only comes once in a thousand years. We must celebrate America's selfless dedication." Cheers to the spirit!”

Lin Yu raised his glass again.

The other people were stunned for a moment, and raised their glasses in front of them. Lin Yu was right. This opportunity is indeed rare in a thousand years.

Because in normal international exchanges, unless two countries are really mortal enemies, they rarely show off their hatred for each other during important festivals.

Even if they want to, they have to do it secretly and cover up several layers of skin.

They won't do it openly.

This time, America's open attack is like stealing a chicken but losing the rice. If the launch is successful, it will be a big blow to the Chinese.

However, it did not succeed.

According to America's own people, this rocket costs as much as 280 million US dollars, plus 20 satellites, that's tens of millions of dollars.

Put it together, it's at least 300 million US dollars.

300 million US dollars of fireworks!

When the Chinese celebrated the Spring Festival, the Americans selflessly, generously, and happily paid more than 300 million US dollars, and specially picked a time just to let the Chinese see a big firework while eating the New Year's Eve dinner.

What a selfless and dedicated internationalist spirit this is.

Now, we must toast to America's selfless spirit!

Cheers!

Xiang Baichuan gave up his glass and picked up the bottle.

With him as an example, several other people also picked up bottles one after another.

As for Loulan, he directly picked up a bottle in each hand.

The bottle and the glass collided together, making a ding-ding sound.

Then, there was the sound of drinking.

After a few glasses of wine, the sound of fireworks exploding came from outside the window.

At the same time, there were colorful lights, reflecting into the room through the window glass.

Behind the sound of fireworks exploding, there were also the screams of children, very scared, but very excited.

Listening to these sounds, Lin Yu grabbed a dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth, and then picked up a bottle of newly opened beer and asked several people:

"Do you want to go to see the fireworks?"

Miao Yuan waved his hand: "Let's go, carry things and eat outside!"

So, Lin Yu took the wine, Xiang Baichuan moved the table, Miao Yuan and Qian Jianguo served the dishes, and Loulan took the cigarettes.

After a short while, several people carrying things appeared at the edge of the residential square.

After putting the things away, Lin Yu, holding a bottle of wine, stopped two children who were playing with Zihua: "Give me the Zihua. Children playing with fire during the New Year's Day are not afraid of wetting the bed at night and washing away the fortune for next year."

Under his coercion and inducement, the two children could only hold the burned Zihua and cry and go home to find their mother.

After lighting the Zihua and holding it in his hand, Lin Yu skillfully manipulated various postures and played with it directly.

Seeing his playful look, Qian Jianguo asked quietly while drinking:

"During the New Year, do you want me to arrange a few blind dates for you?"

"People from the Lanling Municipal Government kept looking for me before the New Year, saying that you are already old and it is not good to be single. There are many girls in the Municipal Government compound."

"They are all so pretty and asked if I could help to make a match."

"Do you have any ideas?"

The flower burned out at this moment, fiddled with it for a few more times, confirmed that there was nothing inside, and threw it aside. Lin Yu turned around and said to Qian Jianguo:

"I have to go back to my ancestral grave."
