Chapter 267 Building Dengtian Island
"I'm not mistaken, such a large engineering project has to be broadcast live, my God!"

"This is definitely an unprecedented live broadcast event. I am afraid it will set a record for the longest live broadcast and the hottest live broadcast room. After all, no one can refuse to dig a machine."

"With so much confidence in future technology, it seems that they are really likely to build a space elevator. I don't know why they suddenly become a little looking forward to it. Maybe space travel is just around the corner."

"If you want to start a live broadcast, I will definitely watch it. This is no better than those anchors who have reached the tenth level of beauty."

"It's better not to say it too early. Future technology has gained popularity, but if the project fails in the end, it will be really embarrassing."

……

After Future Technology announced that it would start a global [-]/[-] live broadcast of the construction process of the space elevator, there were heated discussions on major platforms and websites at home and abroad. No one thought that Future Technology would suddenly make such a decision.

Although this has made many people look forward to and have full confidence in the space elevator project, many people also expressed concern.

I am afraid that something unexpected will happen to the final project, and the reputation accumulated by Future Technology over the years will be lost, and it will become a reason for overseas to ridicule the domestic aerospace industry.

But there is no doubt that this has attracted the attention of many netizens.

As a result, almost no one is talking about Masne's Space Exploration Technologies, and the launch of a spacecraft to land on the moon again in April next year.

All eyes are on the space elevator.

a few days later.

When the heavy-duty dredger engineering ship mobilized from all over the country, such as Tiankun and Tianjing, hundreds of ships arrived at the sea area where the artificial island was located, and this super project officially started.

at the same time.

With the high expectations of users around the world, the live broadcast also started simultaneously.

In order to earn enough influence as much as possible through this global live broadcast, Xu Lei can be said to have invested a lot of money in this matter, just to ensure the effect of the live broadcast and give users a better viewing experience.

If someone is staying at the scene at this moment, they will definitely find that there is a warship among the many engineering ships.

Looking around, it looks out of place.

Under normal circumstances, a fleet composed of aircraft carriers should cruise in the nearby waters to ensure the progress of the project. It is really strange for a warship to stay directly at the construction site like this.

In fact, this warship is officially a live broadcast ship specially arranged by Xu Lei. Not only is it equipped with quantum relay stations and drone live broadcast equipment, but also borrowed a few reporters from the main station to let them take turns to explain and mobilize the live broadcast at regular intervals. atmosphere.

It is no exaggeration to say that this kind of card has never happened even when the Chinese Academy of Sciences was carrying out the project.

It is also worth mentioning that in order to ensure harmony in the live broadcast room, domestic users and overseas users belong to two live broadcast screens.

Otherwise, I am afraid that everyone will be silenced when they argue.

Tuesday, October 2025, 11.

Magic City.

Guo Xin is very unconvinced today.

As a senior spaceflight enthusiast, folk theorist, media commentator, he never thought that a space elevator was a feasible project.

In his opinion, the space agency chose to cooperate with Future Technology to build a space elevator, and temporarily stopped the research and development of the original heavy-duty launch vehicle for this reason. This is an extremely wrong and stupid operation.

For this reason, when the news first came out, he made a video to reply fiercely.

Although he was attacked by many users, some people also chose to support his views, so that the video comment area showed a trend of polarization.

But these are not the point.

The point is that his videos have become popular, and even the number of fans who haven't changed for a long time has increased significantly.

Seeing the benefits, he became excited, thinking that this was an opportunity to rejuvenate his career, so he asked the company for a long vacation in the next few days, and made several similar videos successively.

Based on the knowledge I have acquired, it is proved from various angles that the space elevator cannot be realized, and the space agency should re-study the heavy-duty launch vehicle.

And in order to appeal to users to empathize, he also released a lot of cruel words, threatening that if future technology can create a space elevator, he will eat the metabolites of his own dog until he is full.

But I have to say that his popularity is really good. The few videos he released have achieved a high number of views, and he has even gradually refined his fans, attracting many users who think that Future Technology is too arrogant this time. .

In addition, he analyzed from the existing technical knowledge, and did not maliciously slander and spread rumors, so he is not afraid of future technology.

According to his plan, today he wants to watch the live broadcast content, and then make a new video from the screenshots taken from it. It is best to find the mistakes in the construction process, so that his character design can be more stable, and fans More viscous.

"I want to see what tricks the live broadcast can play. Everything I'm doing now is just a waste of resources."

In the study room of a community, Guo Xin took out his holographic intelligent quantum terminal device, and secretly calculated while clicking into the live broadcast room.

Speaking of which, today he had already made an appointment to go to the amusement park with his children, but in order to wait for this non-stop live broadcast, he insisted on persuading his wife to go alone with his son.

So whatever you say, you have to find enough material to make a video.

At this moment, although the domestic live broadcast room has not yet started, a large number of users have poured into the live broadcast room, and the number of people in the upper left corner has rapidly climbed to tens of millions visible to the naked eye.

And it continues to rise.

As for the update frequency of the barrage, it is even faster, and everyone is discussing with themselves.

That is to say, today's quantum network is fast enough, otherwise the live broadcast room would have collapsed before the live broadcast started.

"coming."

"When will the live broadcast start?"

"I finally have something to read after get off work every day."

"Hope everything goes well."

"I don't know how to put it, it always feels like it's not that easy."

Guo Xin didn't bother to check the barrage in the live broadcast room, his eyes were always fixed on the location of the time display.

ten o'clock in the morning.

As the time for the live broadcast of the promotion arrived, a picture finally appeared in the originally dark live broadcast room, and the title of the live broadcast room was updated at the same time.

"Building Dengtian Island in nine months, everyone will supervise together~"

The so-called Dengtian Island is Xu Lei's name for this super-large artificial island.

But when the live broadcast screen appeared in front of the audience, there was a gap in the bullet screen for a few seconds, and then it was refreshed explosively.

Because everyone is stunned.

A heavy-duty dredger with a body length of more than 100 meters and a width of more than 20 meters, equipped with dredging equipment and giant reamers, is even more powerful than the complete aircraft carrier fleet in terms of numbers, not to mention that there are more transport ship projects Ships, almost densely covered the entire surrounding sea area.

This kind of strong visual impact made the audience unable to react at once.

The expressions in front of the screen were dull.

No one expected that Future Science and Technology would make such a big deal, and it would transfer all the heavy dredgers from all over the country.

At this time, the audience is not worried at all that Dengtian Island cannot be completed on time, because so many ships are the greatest confidence.

Especially when so many dredgers are in working condition at the same time, and the highest sediment is exposed to the sea surface in a short period of time, coupled with the introduction and explanation of the reporter from the main station, the popularity of the live broadcast room has reached a peak state.

More and more people have confidence in the space elevator project.

"This is called infrastructure, it's a miracle!"

"It's the first time I've seen so many island-making artifacts working at the same time. The future technology is awesome."

"It felt like it could be done in less than nine months."

"This is much more powerful than an excavator."

"From now on, I will come to check in regularly every day to witness the completion of the domestic space elevator together."

"Sit down quickly, Ji Cao."

"My sister asked me why I knelt on the sofa to watch the live broadcast."

The audience in the domestic live broadcast room was so excited that it was difficult to control their emotions, while the overseas live broadcast room was just dumbfounded!

"Oumei, is this really something that humans can do? I'm afraid only God can do it."

"These guys are simply steel behemoths, so powerful."

"The speed is too fast. It didn't take long for the sediment at the highest point to rise above the sea surface. It's a miracle, okay?"

"Why don't we have such a strong construction team."

"If a space elevator can really be built, then I believe only future technology can do it."

I don't know how long ago.

When Guo Xin looked away from the live broadcast room, he still kept an expression of disbelief on his face: "How is this possible? Is it possible for future technology to build a space elevator?"

He understands that the mobilization of so many heavy ships must be related to the higher-ups, and this kind of behavior that almost uses the power of the whole country to build the project does not seem to be a failure. After all, if there is not enough confidence, the higher-ups may It will not be supported to this extent.

This made Guo Xin doubt his own judgment.

"It seems that this project is not as simple as I thought!"

Yue Mo pondered for more than ten seconds, and after finally saying this with emotion, he turned his gaze back to the live broadcast room.

He intends to change his point of view and remake a video to express his mood, and also wants to see how the audience will react.

It is also worth mentioning that when audiences around the world are watching the live broadcast room, on the dredger Tiankun located in the center of the sea area of ​​Dengtian Island, Liu Gaowen, who was sent by Xu Lei, is waiting in line with a serious expression.

Because the construction of the ground station also includes a tower with a height of more than ten kilometers.

The tower is divided into two parts, the ground and the seabed. In order to maintain stability, the seabed part needs to be increased in an appropriate amount, and it must be buried during the construction of the artificial island, which can also reduce seawater erosion.

Liu Gaowen is responsible for the construction of the submarine tower, ensuring that there will be no mistakes in the process, and that it will be carried out according to Xu Lei's drawings.

"The construction speed of Dengtian Island has temporarily slowed down in the past few days. Let's wait for the materials for the tower to be delivered."

In the main control room of the Tiankun heavy dredger, Liu Gaowen calculated the efficiency of each vessel, and quickly explained to the engineering personnel beside him in a deep voice.

The tower is the most important part of the ground station, and it will also be directly connected to the cable car. Its quality is related to whether the space elevator can run smoothly after it is completed.

So its material requirements are extremely high.

It needs to have sufficient strength and corrosion resistance.

For this reason, Xu Lei specially used the special alloy material developed by Gu Sanlin's team at the research center. Its performance is almost the same as the core skeleton of Xingtong's body. From this point alone, one can imagine the amount of money that will be spent.

I am afraid that looking at the world, only future technology can bear it.

If it is another company, it is estimated that there is no way to establish a ground station.

But it is precisely for this reason that even if the company has stepped up to produce the materials needed for the tower, the transportation progress cannot be compared with the island-building efficiency.

After all, during the construction of the central area, it is necessary to bury the seabed structure of the tower while filling it with sand. No matter which process is fast or slow, it will lead to serious quality problems in the project.

Liu Gaowen could not afford this kind of responsibility.

He has the opportunity to participate in this kind of project in this life. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has no regrets in his life. He is naturally extremely grateful to Xu Lei in his heart. Under such circumstances, he must be responsible for the quality of the project.

So even if the progress of building the island is slowed down.

Anyway, according to the existing heavy engineering ships, the construction of Dengtian Island will not be delayed for ten months at the latest, which is completely sufficient in terms of time.

Don't worry about it.

Besides, there are so many viewers around the world watching, if something goes wrong, it will directly throw the face of future technology on the international stage.

The main ground station, the Range Rover Spaceport, is going hand in hand at the same time. As long as it can be completed within a year, the final splicing will not take too long.

The person in charge next to him didn't have any objection to Liu Gaowen's arrangement, and immediately passed on the order to slow down the speed of the ship a little, and patiently waited for the undersea part of the tower to be transported.

"I understand Liu Gong."

Soon after the person in charge took over the task and left, Liu Gaowen's eyes turned to the control screen in front of him again.

There is no intention of slacking off.

It can only be said that Xu Lei made the right choice to let Liu Gaowen take charge of the construction of the ground station.

Let's talk about overseas.

Originally, Ma Sien and Hayden returned to Rover Island from Washington State, and were preparing to put all their energy on the launch mission to ensure the successful launch of the space shuttle in April next year and send their own astronauts to the moon again. At this time, Future Technology launched a global live broadcast for [-] hours non-stop, which just made them lose any enthusiasm.

The key point is that when they first learned that Future Technology and Yanfang were going to build a space elevator, they didn't take this matter to heart at all, thinking that this project was completely impossible.

But now that Future Technology has such a high-profile live broadcast event, I wish people all over the world knew about their space elevator plan. If they are not sure, they may not choose to broadcast live.

Faced with this situation, they were somewhat worried, fearing that the space elevator would actually be built.

Because as professionals in the aerospace industry, no one understands the powerful role of space elevators better than them. If future technology really masters space elevators, the construction of lunar bases and even Mars bases will be completed in a very short period of time.

If they are deploying near-earth and near-moon space ports, as well as super-large laser weapons, they will completely lose their right to speak.

You can only watch the changes in the world pattern.

For this reason, although Hayden did not return to Washington state to report to Tripp immediately, he still called Ma Sien over and held an emergency meeting to discuss this matter.

"Have you watched the live broadcast about future technology? Let me know what you think. The general is still waiting for my report."

Rover Island.

NASA's Kennedy Space Center.

In the huge indoor space, Hayden stood on the elevated and looked at the space shuttle being overhauled not far away, and asked Ma Sien beside him about the live broadcast of the construction process of the space elevator.

Although Ma Sien is reluctant to admit it, based on his previous experience in dealing with future technology, Xu Lei is able to broadcast live broadcasts around the world with such confidence. I am afraid that nine out of ten are more confident in this project.

After a little hesitation, he finally chose to speak: "I watched the live broadcast. They should be serious this time. Maybe this Xu Lei has mastered some of the core technologies of the space elevator."

"We really need to have a hunch in this regard." Hayden agreed with Ma Sien's thoughts: "Future technology is really a terrible opponent!"

The voice just fell.

Then he added: "Neon has spent so many years of research without a clue, but they started construction so easily, it's really incredible."

After hearing what Hayden said, Ma Sien's face suddenly looked a little gloomy.

The Tesla new energy vehicle brand that I am proud of was broken by the Xingyuan Automobile of the future technology. Today, it basically exists in name only. It finally found a chance to turn around again. It seems that it can turn around with the help of its own space exploration technology company. How could he be willing to miss this kind of opportunity because of the situation, and even overwhelmed Future Technology.

The main thing is that he understands very well that if he can't gain the upper hand this time, then he may have to lie down honestly in the future.

While thinking quickly, a very bold idea suddenly appeared in his mind.

"I do have a good proposal." Ma Sien put away the expression on his face, and looked at Hayden pretending to be calm: "This artificial island of Future Technology is built on the equator and located in the southern sea. If it attacks, the success rate will be very high.”

Mason's idea is simple.

Since the technical means cannot surpass the future technology, let's start directly with force.

As long as the ground station of the space elevator is destroyed by then, there will be no threat to their moon base plan.

I have to say that Ma Sien's proposal is very good. After all, as a pure businessman, he will not think too much about follow-up issues.

But Hayden is completely different.

As the person in charge of the space agency, he knows very well that if the ground station of the space elevator is really attacked, the whole world will be plunged into war in an instant. Moreover, given the current gap in force between the two sides, they really may not be able to win.

So I rejected the proposal without much thought.

"I hope you'd better not have similar thoughts." Hearing the sound, Hayden turned around and said to Ma Sien very seriously: "The other party has already sent an aircraft carrier fleet to cruise around this artificial island, and they still have Equipped with sixth-generation fighter jets and nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, as well as the quantum computing technology mastered by future technology, it will only be us who will completely turn around and suffer losses at this time."

"If the future technology can really produce a space elevator, then I'm afraid I have to convince the general to choose to cooperate with the Yanfang to jointly develop lunar resources." The last sentence is his own emotion.

After all, there is a space elevator, and the aerospace technology they possess is nothing. The construction speed of their moon base must be incomparable with future technology.

Under such circumstances, it is undoubtedly a more suitable way to actively choose to cooperate and first use the space elevator of future technology to build their own moon base.

But this sentence made Ma Sien panic.

If the space agency chooses to cooperate with future technology, it is equivalent to their space exploration technology company being directly kicked out.

This result is unacceptable to Ma Sien anyway.

Thinking at a high speed, he quickly opened his mouth to save him: "Mr. Hayden, don't forget that the most important thing about space elevators is the problem of cable materials. Even if future technology can really make space elevators, I am afraid that with the current level of material development, the cables will not be able to be used at all. Can't afford several shipments."

"Once it breaks, the space elevator will lose its function, and it will not affect us at that time."

"Even if we take a step back, their space elevator can really transport for a long time, and it won't be too late for us to unite with other forces to ask for cooperation."

Originally, Hayden did have the idea of ​​wanting to cooperate, but after hearing Ma Sien's words, he felt that there was some truth.

My mind couldn't help but become active.

The biggest advantage of the space elevator is that it is convenient to use and transport materials for a long time, but if the cable will break as Masne said, then most of the functions will basically disappear.

Because it is impossible to replace the cable after a few times of use.

What is more critical is that the environment of each section of the cable with a length of [-] kilometers is different, and the greater the difference in value, the more likely problems will occur.

It is possible that the test data obtained in the laboratory will be different when it is used in practice.

Thinking of this, Hayden immediately made a decision: "What you said makes sense. I will report this matter to the general immediately. As for how to make a decision, I will let the general decide."

After finally leaving this sentence, I saw him rushing back to the office to arrange a trip.

As for Ma Sien looking at Hayden's back at this time, his frown was finally completely relaxed, and he believed that the general will definitely adopt this proposal.

After all, if the two sides cooperate, they will stand on the same level, and how to build super-large laser weapons to achieve military crushing, so as long as there is a chance, they will definitely try.

Compared with the worrying overseas side, Xu Lei is immersed in the joy of rapidly rising influence at this moment.

The development of the matter was almost exactly as he expected. After the live broadcast officially started, he found that the influence of the science and technology museum booth was increasing significantly, and at this speed, when the main body of the space elevator was completely completed, the estimated impact The power can also reach 500 million points, unlocking new technological exhibits.
