Chapter 943 - Inestimable Value

Chapter 943: Inestimable Value

Translator: Min Editor: Caron_

Was this really just a space station?

It wasn’t just Liu Zhusheng who was shocked.

When the netizens around the world saw the video Celestial Trade released and the photos taken by the first passengers to the city, they were stunned by this magnificent space station.

In an aviation fan forum in Hua, a member reposted the pictures on Celestial Trade’s official website onto the forum. The entire forum then boiled and instantly filled up with countless discussions on this topic. The members who originally just lurked on the forum all engaged in heated discussion about the photos that looked like they were taken from movies.

“…My God, did I walk into Star Trek’s studio?”

“Star Trek’s studio? Are special effects and real-life comparable?!”

Other than pointless comments, some people discussed the pictures published by Celestial Trade from a technical perspective. For example, someone who claimed to be an expert in the relevant field jumped out and posted a somewhat technical piece.

“Using the ring as the counterweight, the counterweight operates around the axis at an extremely fast speed. The tension is applied to the cable-like track by centrifugation to ensure that the track is tight. The ‘balance hammer’ itself is used as a living space, using centrifugation to provide gravity… the person who proposed this design is a genius!”

Like this discussion post, when the number of clicks and replies reached to a certain point, naturally “industry experts” began to share their opinions. Apart from those new members, there was usually no shortage of technical experts actually in the aerospace field.

For example, a senior member named “Aerospace Private” not only had countless certification badges hanging under his ID, but it also stated he was working at Hua Aerospace Science and Industry Group! He was a member of the forum for quite some time. In an era when the space enthusiast forum was still discussing Microsoft’s “Freelancer”, he was already active on the forum.

“A genius made this design possible. Every time you transport materials to the space station, the position of the center of gravity will change. If the weight of the counterweight is increased to offset the speed of the cantilever, the amount of calculation involved will be an astronomical number. It’s estimated that even Tianhe No. 1 would have to calculate for half a day in order to obtain the optimized result!”

When the expert spoke, it immediately attracted countless attention.

“My God, then is the main control computer that controls the space elevator balance system even more powerful than Tianhe No. 1?”

“Aerospace Private” scoffed when he saw the countless amateur comments. As an avid fan of Future Technology, he replied with a few lines

“Is this difficult for them? You might not know, but the supercomputer chip used by Tianhe No. 2 is designed by Future Technology and manufactured by Future Heavy Industries. It’s known as Dragon Cavalry X1 supercomputer chip. Using new lix architecture, graphene material, and 7nm processing, even the industry leader Intel envied at this technological masterpiece!”

“I tell you every year the amount of patent fees Intel pays to Future Group is enough to buy several public companies!”

When he mentioned patent fees, Aerospace Private couldn’t stop his praise.

Since joining the WTO, when it came to the high-tech field, especially the electronics industry, Hua must pay tens of billions of patent fees to the electronic giants Intel and Qualcomm every year. Although he wasn’t in the semiconductor industry, he still felt proud.

What?

Future Group isn’t a Hua-based company?

Why does that matter?! It’s a company created in Hua, and it’s a company started by someone was born in Hua!

Of course, the technological details were always discussed by a small group of people, and most people focused on other, more explosive elements of the news. The news was posted on the official website along with pictures, drawing the attention of every viewer.

[Celestial City signed a contract with Hilton Hotel for a total area of 30,000 square meters to create the world’s first space-themed hotel.]

Earlier, Celestial Trade announced the fare of the space elevator on the official website. The pre-tax base price of an adult fare was only 1,500 Xin New Dollars! The economy class fare was even cheaper than some airfare!

People without money saw an opportunity to tour outer space, and people with money saw an opportunity for space tourism!

Hilton went all the way up to build up a hotel, so why can’t I go up and sell a biscuit?

Although Celestial Trade’s ticket sales had yet to open, everyone’s hearts had already flown to the beautiful Coro Island.

Almost all the famous and influential travelers were all astonished by the ridiculously cheap space tour. Many of them had already traveled the world, but none of them visited space before! When they heard Celestial Trade released ticket information, their passion to explore was immediately ignited.

The best course of action was to wait on Coro Island.

While countless people were planning to travel to Xin, something even crazier happened.

A certain popular figure in Hua commented and scoffed Southern Airlines, not because of the quality of service, but because the tickets were completely sold out!

“This is insane! I just went to Southern Airlines’ official website to look at tickets. All the tickets to Xin were sold out! Yes, they were all sold out! Even the first class. The innocent me thought I could buy a ticket. I didn’t expect the tickets for the next month to already be sold out!”

A stone cast a thousand ripples, and countless fans replied.

“Really? Why doesn’t Southern Airlines offer more flights?”

“Are you stupid?! There are only two airports on Coro Island in total. The third airport is still constructing its runway. There is a high demand here, so there is low demand everywhere else? It takes time to construct a runway! Plus, fights can’t be easily added.”

“Now it’s possible to go to Xin through a cruise. Fly to Xiangjiang or Wanghai or Guangdong or Guangxi, then take a cruise to Ange island. However, if not limited by finances, I recommend flying to Australia first before taking a cruise there, it will be faster.”

“…”

In addition to those well-known influencers, the 1,500 dollars space tour also became widespread among ordinary people. After reading some blogs, some “aspiring young women” inexplicably thought going to space would be a spiritual journey for the soul. (1)

However, the space elevator wasn’t a Sichuan-Tibet line, and they couldn’t hitch a ride from a “good-hearted person.”

So someone asked for help.

“Sisters, where are the lucky travel guides of Celestial Trade? This is very urgent.”

There was also a selfie attached.

In this age filled with good-hearted people, someone would help, naturally.

For example, a netizen with a wide range of ideas replied.

“You can buy a ticket to Xin first, then try to see if you can get a free ride from Mr. Jiang. If you can get on his limited-edition Lamborghini, he definitely won’t mind sending you to heaven.”

“…”

It wasn’t just the netizens around the world who were stunned, but also the governments that just participated in the United Nations Outer Space Summit. However, they didn’t show their shock through official channels, but they worked overtime to re-examine whether they underestimated the true value of the space elevator.

(1) This refers to the phenomenon of young women traveling to Tibet with a budget. They hitch a ride with people along the highway in exchange for sexual favors.

Ruins stretched across the landscape in the apocalypse after the nuclear war.

If you accidentally survived on the wasteland, then you must be ready to face the endless hunger, ceaseless dangers, the mad zombies at night, and the peculiar mutant creatures that are the aftermaths of the constant radiation.

But for Jiang Chen, this place was heaven.

Mansions stood tall, luxurious cars parked on the street, high tech products and gold abandoned everywhere.

What? You were the president of a game development company before the war? You were responsible for the development of the 3D virtual reality online multiplayer game? Well, that’s great, why don’t you come work for me. The salary is two pieces of bread a day.

iPhone? Ultra thin design? Don’t you see that the phone I invented are thinner than condoms?

Aircraft carrier? Fighter jets? Oh, I have those things as well, but they are designed for space combat.

Watch the story of Jiang Chen, who possessed the ability to travel through space and time, as he witness the creation of an empire stretched across space and time..
