Chapter 265 Obviously Impossible 【Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass】

Wu Chuping decided to invite Xu Lei to participate in the lunar exploration project, and other people in the bureau were skeptical.

Think this trip doesn't care about two outcomes.

Either Wu Chuping returned without success, or he succeeded in persuading Xu Lei.

But they never expected that Wu Chuping would bring back a third shocking result.

It took only a day to walk to Binjiang City, and the launch vehicle was directly upgraded to a space elevator.

It can be said to be a good guy.

This made many people very curious about what happened to Wu Chuping.

I want to know what the two talked about.

Only Wu Chuping understood that he was completely passive during the whole conversation.

Almost all relevant content was proposed by Xu Lei.

From this point alone, he can judge that Xu Lei should have already had relevant plans for the space elevator project, and he just happened to provide him with an opportunity to implement this time.

Otherwise, how can Xu Lei tell himself to go back after only a few minutes.

Could it be that Xu Lei temporarily decided on a project as big as a space elevator in just a few minutes?

is it possible?

The answer is obviously impossible.

At least Wu Chuping believed in his own judgment very much.

However, at the first discussion meeting, many people did not have much hope for the space elevator project proposed by Xu Lei, thinking that it would be too difficult to build it.

Instead of taking this risk, it is better to choose a more confident heavy-duty launch vehicle.

In particular, Wu Chuping pointed out that the construction time of this space elevator project will be about one year later, which has aroused public discussion.

Everyone thinks this kind of project is too crazy.

In the end, nine out of ten will end badly.

Even if most of the construction costs are paid by future technology, their space agency needs to continuously launch the cornerstone module of the near-Earth spaceport for counterweight within this year, and other projects will basically be in a state of suspension.

Coupled with the development and manufacture of lunar base modules and lunar module manned spacecraft, its impact is also very far-reaching.

Absolutely can't make a decision hastily, it needs to go through strict discussion and decision.

Although most of the people in the bureau are opposed, the two bureau chiefs dare not directly reject Xu Lei. Who makes Xu Lei have a very high influence in the world, and has just overcome the cancer problem. If you choose not to trust each other at this time, it is inevitable Situations will arise.

In this regard, they not only reported the matter, but also contacted Yang Senping of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Yu Hongliang of the military and others to ask Xu Lei for more detailed information.

I want to use this method to judge and analyze more comprehensively.

Fortunately, relying on Xingtong's assistance, Xu Lei quickly completed the space elevator project plan.

It not only explains in detail the conception and design and construction ideas of the space elevator, but also includes the general design drawing of the near-Earth space port, as well as the manned spacecraft and lunar module capable of accommodating seven astronauts.

In other words, as long as the two parties work together to build a space elevator, these problems can be solved directly.

Mainly, Xu Lei is very clear that the space elevator is no better than other scientific research projects. If he wants to convince the space agency and firmly participate in it, it is impossible not to disclose some core technologies.

Although he has several previous successes as a foreshadowing, it is not realistic to reach a cooperation just by talking about it.

I have to say that this approach is quite effective.

After receiving the project plan from Xu Lei, the space agency held another core meeting that day, and all relevant scientists and engineers were in place.

Jointly study the feasibility of the methods involved in the plan.

Until it was getting dark, the meeting never ended, which shows that there are so many hard goods in this plan.

……

imperial capital.

Space Agency Core Lecture Hall.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

In the room that was still brightly lit, many aerospace engineers and scientists sitting there were intently and seriously flipping through the project plan that they had just received from Xu Lei.

There was surprise and shock in his eyes from time to time.

They were attracted by the technical means and research directions mentioned in it.

Few are questioning space elevators.

The person in charge of the bureau sitting on the main seat can only act anxiously in the face of this situation.

I wanted to give an accurate reply to the space elevator project proposed by Xu Lei as soon as possible, but I was afraid of disturbing the thoughts of these people present, so I had no choice but to sit in my seat and wait patiently.

It wasn't until he saw someone gradually raised his gaze that he coughed twice and brought the topic back to business.

"You have all read the project planning document on the space elevator, now let's talk about your own ideas." When speaking, he looked around at the crowd and asked two questions: "How feasible is this project, and whether it can Roughly completed within a year?"

Because most of the people present have been convinced by Xu Lei's project plan, so there is nothing to hesitate at this moment, and they all opened their mouths to express their views.

"According to the construction content of the near-Earth spaceport mentioned in the project plan, with our existing rocket carrying capacity, it can be achieved if the frequency of launches is increased. In addition, the manned spacecraft and lunar module involved The design drawings are also very advanced and exquisite, and I think it is completely possible to cooperate with future technologies."

"If my guess is correct, the future technology should have mastered the production technology of cable materials, and it is definitely possible to build it in a short time."

"With the launch vehicle technology we currently have, it is unrealistic to build a base on the moon first overseas. Only by relying on the space elevator project can we achieve technological overtake."

"I also think the project is feasible."

"The space elevator can allow us to build bases and space ports on the moon or even Mars, laying a good foundation for the establishment of a space force to enter deep space in the future. Since we have this opportunity now, we must seize it."

"Academician Xu really lives up to his reputation as a scientific monster. It's unbelievable that he can optimize the project to such an extent."

"At present, the overseas side is ready to move, and there is not much time left for us. We should contact the future technology side as soon as possible to determine the relevant content of the cooperation."

……

The person in charge listened to all the opinions of the aerospace engineers and scientists, and couldn't help showing a wry smile. After all, before getting the project plan, most people held opposing opinions .

But this also happens to show that Xu Lei's level will not be the youngest academician in history.

It can be said that at this time today, everyone thinks that Xu Lei is an all-round scientist, and his brain is definitely much more developed than normal people.

This belongs to the truly gifted scientists, and others are not qualified even if they want to catch up.

But even though everyone's opinions have been unified now, the person in charge sitting on the main seat still didn't directly make a decision, and after a little hesitation, he still turned his attention to Wu Chuping next to him.

"Old Wu, you are the commander-in-chief of the entire lunar exploration project. What do you think of the proposed space elevator?"

In addition to being the chief commander of the project, Wu Chuping was also the first person to know about the space elevator project. At this critical moment, he must express his opinion.

Facing the leader's question, Wu Chuping seemed to have prepared a draft in his heart, and then said without hesitation: "If the space elevator can be built, it will play an irreplaceable role in the development of our aerospace industry. I think Even if it’s worth the risk in the south of the city.”

"In addition, I believe that the higher authorities will definitely support our decision." Finally, Wu Chuping added.

For the sake of what he said, the person in charge naturally had some calculations in his heart.

Although he didn't make a decision on the spot, it can be heard from his words that he himself supports the space elevator project.

"Well."

"Since everyone agrees that the space elevator project is feasible, I will immediately report to the higher authorities."

After saying this solemnly to everyone, he then turned his gaze to Wu Chuping who was next to him, and specifically instructed him: "Old Wu, regarding the space elevator project, we still leave it to you to be in charge. Academician Xu and Future Technology You need to communicate more over there."

"Don't worry, Chief, I will discuss it with Academician Xu personally." Wu Chuping firmly promised.

Naturally, the people below did not have any objections to this arrangement.

After all, Wu Chuping is more familiar with the space elevator project, and Xu Lei is also familiar with him when he comes and goes, and the follow-up cooperation will be smoother.

Since it was getting late, everyone did not stay too long after the meeting, and got up and left the lecture hall one after another.

But there is no doubt that it will be difficult for them to sleep tonight.

Seeing that a project that only appears in a movie is about to be born in their hands, the pride and satisfaction brought by this achievement is something that nothing has brought.

It’s just that everyone didn’t know it yet. When they began to sleep one after another in the middle of the night, the Overseas Space Administration and Masne’s Space Exploration Technology Company officially issued an announcement, deciding to launch a manned spacecraft to the moon again in April 2026.

Once the news came out, it quickly caused a sensation on the Internet.

Various media organizations and magazines have reported this in detail, and it can be seen that the comparison is full of excitement.

Humans will visit the moon again after a few decades, which is definitely something worthy of attention.

You must know that the Internet is dominated by young people now, but they were not born when they landed on the moon last time, so this time it will definitely attract global attention.

Compared with overseas and domestic people, they have a unique feeling for landing on the moon. Although they are disappointed that they did not land on the moon by their own astronauts after hearing the news, they have to admit that their technological means are indeed very advanced.

So under this complicated sentiment, related hot searches during the day occupy the hot search lists of major websites and platforms.

Aroused passionate discussions among massive netizens.

"This time I can finally see humans land on the moon in person. I hope overseas can release more related pictures and videos."

"Masne is still very good, Tesla has already become like that, and we can see another space exploration technology company turn around."

"Compared to Mr. Xu, Ma Sien is nothing!"

"It's a pity that Future Technology has not set foot in the space field, otherwise it must be better than that space exploration technology company."

"I don't know when we will see our own astronauts land on the moon. I'm looking forward to it!"
