Chapter 508 Richard's Visit
Zhang Xiaoman made an appointment with someone today.

His name was Richard Cromwell, and he was a scientist from England.

To be precise, he is an expert with a deep understanding of planetary science.

Unlike other programs, planetary science is a very large field.

It covers a wide variety of subjects, including astronomy, geology, meteorology, atmospheric science, gravity, thermodynamics, aquaphysics, aquachemistry, remote sensing, manufacturing, and more.

There are even architecture, materials science, computer science, and agronomy, which is simply a super hodgepodge.

Everything you can imagine, general planetary science is involved.

Of course, it is impossible for the current human beings to master all of them anyway. Generally speaking, they only specialize in one aspect of them.

And this Mr. Richard is a double doctor specializing in astronomy and geology.

Speaking of which, Zhang Xiaoman met this boss through Sun Mingsheng.

When Sun Mingsheng worked in overseas research institutes, he and the other party were colleagues in different departments of the same company.

Coupled with the fact that the two have the same hobby—eating hot pot—then they became acquainted and became a team of very good friends.

Now, when he heard that Zhang Xiaoman wanted to find a scientist with achievements in astronomy and geology, he first thought of his old friend.

According to Sun Mingsheng, this is a top talent in the industry, and he belongs to the kind that all parties want to grab if they break their scalps.

Of course, such a boss is usually very busy, even if a friend comes to visit, he may not be able to spare time to entertain him.

However, Sun Mingsheng called the other party all the way from England to Qionghua City with just one phone call.

The method he uses is also very simple, that is, to reveal a little about things about the moon landing and space exploration.

This is the main purpose of Zhang Xiaoman to find the other party.

However, simply talking about it is useless.

Therefore, he provided Richard with a video file, which recorded some pictures he took on the moon through the Dawn.

In this way, the boss immediately abandoned all the work at hand, and took the trouble to come here by plane from England, wanting to meet the boss who provided the video.

At this time, in the meeting room No. 1 of Danlan Xingkong Company, three people were sitting in it and talking to each other.

"Richard, I didn't expect you to come so early, but it's still a little early for the appointed time, why don't I take you around the company first?"

Sun Mingsheng, who was wearing a white research uniform, said.

Opposite him was an old white man with half-white hair who was over sixty years old.

The man was Richard Cromwell who was here to visit.

Richard actually arrived at Qionghua City yesterday afternoon.

However, because of the time difference, he was really sleepy at the time, so he went to sleep in the hotel and didn't wake up until this morning.

This is not the first time he has come to China. He has been to this ancient and mysterious country once when he was working on a scientific research project.

Since then, he has fallen in love with a unique food here - hot pot.

However, when he came this time, Richard didn't have the heart to enjoy his favorite cooking method.

Because in the company that his old friend Sun Mingsheng mentioned, there is a project waiting for him that makes him forget about eating and drinking.

In fact, when he first received the email, Richard had no interest in the so-called moon landing video.

In his opinion, this is nothing more than a somewhat unique joke made by his Chinese friend.

However, since it was an email from an old friend, he still had to take the time to read it.

The content of the email was an invitation letter, roughly meaning that he was invited to work in a company called "Danlan Xingkong" in Huaxia Kingdom.

Richard smiled helplessly at that time, and was about to close the mailbox.

It seems that this old friend of mine is here to act as a lobbyist for him this time.

He receives several such emails every day.

As a result, just when he was about to close the mailbox, he suddenly saw the last sentence in the letter:

"Dear Richard, I know you don't care much about these invitations, but this company is really a magical company that you can't imagine. They even have their own space battleship, a real space ship. Battleships can easily land on the moon. If you don’t believe me, just take a look at the attachment I sent you.”

Richard still remembers every word of that email.

He didn't know why he, who thought these were all nonsense at the time, opened the attachment by accident. Maybe this was the power of curiosity.

However, he is also very fortunate that he made the most correct choice.

At first, when Richard clicked on the video, he still had an absurd attitude.

He doesn't think that any private company can independently complete the manned moon landing project, and the so-called "true space warship" is even more nonsense.

However, the moment he clicked on the video, the scene of outer space that appeared in his eyes made the look of disdain disappear on his face, and he couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

A few seconds later, Richard suddenly realized that this must be a fake, a short film synthesized with high technology, just like those sci-fi movies.

However, as the video time passed, the doubts on Richard's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a look of surprise.

The video lasted about 10 minutes in total, and the content was shot on the surface of the moon, which is very clear.

In some close-up pictures, he can even see the dust on the ground.

At the end of the video, Richard fell into a deep shock. It took him a long time to recover, and he immediately called Sun Mingsheng.

For a scientist like him who has studied astronomy and geology for decades, he can tell the truth and falsehood of the content on the video at a glance.

He also had a preconceived attitude at first, so he closed his eyes.

Later, after carefully watching it several times, Richard can be sure that these contents are true in all likelihood.

He even used his own astronomical telescope to observe and compare the position given in the other party's video, and the result shocked and delighted the old scientist.

These things are indeed true.

Judging from Richard's experience, unless the other party also has an expert with the same attainments as himself, and then they are idle and have nothing to do, they are willing to spend expensive costs just to make a joke with themselves.

This is obviously impossible, no one would be so idle.
