Chapter 561: Origin Star Space Elevator

After Chen Lin came back, he was immediately notified that a conference on the Origin Star was going to be held. The level of the people participating in the meeting was high enough, basically the heads of the major bases and several high-level regional managers.

These personnel are crucial to the Origin Star. Each of them basically has the ability to issue orders to half a continent or even an entire continental plate.

After Chen Lin settled Lin Yun, he went to the outpost base via the teleportation array. On the way there, Assistant Zhao told him in detail the general content of the upcoming meeting.

It seems that the Red Dragon Association is ready to build a space elevator on the Origin Star, and is preparing to set up a space station on the Origin Star.

The main purpose of this meeting was actually to discuss the location of the space elevator. At the beginning, Chen Lin heard that the group of researchers from the Red Dragon Association were planning to set up the base of the space elevator on the sea, just like that of the Blue Sea Star.

But the situation on the Blue Starfish side is special. The base is built on the sea because there is only ocean there.

The entire Blue Sea Star Qinglong Base was built based on the portal of the Northern Base. Although it is on the sea, it is very convenient and fast as a whole.

The space elevator on the Origin Star naturally cannot be set up according to the space elevator on the Blue Sea Star. There are so many continental plates on the planet, and most of the portals are concentrated in the middle or inland areas of the continental plates. The sea surface is indeed not a good choice.

After a simple security check at the door, Chen Lin entered the venue alone. At this time, many people had already come into the venue, most of whom were familiar with Chen Lin. When they saw him come in, they quickly greeted him.

"I say, if you guys can't do this, just let me do it!"

The person in charge of Omir Continent said to everyone, "You all have all kinds of good things, but I only have a mining industry here, and I don't even have anything to rely on."

"Please stop it, Fatty Wu!"

Zhong Qingshu immediately said to him, "The association spends so much money on you every year, and you still make enough from the room-temperature superconductor mine? And you're still thinking about taking over the space elevator, how can you not be bloated to death!"

Wu Qianqi, the person in charge of Olmi Continent, suddenly laughed innocently. "Old Zhong, it's boring for you to do this. Everyone knows that you are very rich from growing crops on Dalade Continent. You must not argue about this today. Leave it to us brothers..."

The person in charge of the Stuttgart continent laughed and interrupted: "If it doesn't work, just build it in Stuttgart. Our association's core base is here anyway, so I don't think it's a big deal to have one more space elevator!"

Wu Qianqi was about to say something, but out of the corner of his eye he saw Chen Lin, who was smiling but silent. His expression suddenly changed: "It's over! Why is this kid here!"

Everyone glanced at Chen Lin, only to hear Wu Qianqi say, "Now that Xiao Chen is here, as long as he speaks, this thing will definitely be his!"

Everyone nodded. They knew very well what level of status Chen Lin had. Everyone present was a senior member of the association. After Chen Lin's identity was partially lifted, they were only shocked after learning about Chen Lin's abilities. So much so that every time Chen Lin appeared afterwards, he would be treated as a guest of honor.

There is actually a reason for this.

"Brothers and uncles, please don't flatter me. I already have a lot of things to do at Anyun Base. I won't take the initiative to grab this space elevator project. If there is a suitable one, I will choose the one. If Anyun Base is finally chosen, I will definitely not refuse."

After hearing what Chen Lin said, Zhong Qingshu burst into laughter: "Brother Chen is really getting better and better at speaking. I think my attitude is similar to yours. I won't argue with you. Next, it depends on whose continental plate and base the association will arrange to be responsible for this matter. We fully support him!"

"Of course, if the final address is decided to be my Dalade, or Brother Chen's Takaanyun Base, then no one can say anything!"

Everyone agreed, and the people from the Red Dragon Association soon arrived. Chen Lin then noticed that the person presiding over the meeting this time was actually the vice president of the association. He not only brought the person in charge of the space elevator project team, but also brought the management personnel responsible for the progress of the Blue Sea Star space elevator project. A whole scientific research team also showed up at the venue.

The vice president looked around and signaled for silence.

After everyone was silent, he smiled and said, "Everyone, we are gathered here today to discuss the important matter of building a space elevator project on the Origin Star."

“This project is of great significance to our association and even to all of humanity. I hope everyone here can go all out and contribute their own strength to this project.”

"Because we have carried out similar projects on Blue Ocean Star before, we basically have project experience, so the core construction problem is no longer our key issue. Now our priority is to consider the site selection of the space elevator, which is also one of the main reasons for holding today's meeting."

"Now, please ask the project leader to talk about the basic contents required for the construction of a space elevator."

After the vice president finished speaking, he waved to the side, and immediately a person in work clothes stood up. He nodded to the vice president and others in front of him, then nodded to the department head, and finally turned to Chen Lin and other base leaders who were sitting here.

He is a young scientist, with a love and persistence for science in his eyes. He first made a simple self-introduction. Only then did Chen Lin know that this guy was only 27 years old, even one year younger than himself.

It’s just that this young man had previously fully participated in and designed the overall Blue Star Space Elevator, and made an indelible contribution to the entire space elevator project.

This young man spoke very clearly. He first introduced the principles and design of the space elevator to everyone in detail, and then he introduced the current progress of the project. At present, the space elevator on Origin Star has completed the initial data demonstration stage, and many technologies are mature. Blue Sea Star has provided a lot of help for the current work on Origin Star, so there are almost no major problems.

However, he quickly mentioned that although the space elevator project on the Origin Star had completed preliminary design and theoretical research, some minor problems had occurred during the ongoing experimental verification and engineering implementation. The environmental factors on the Origin Star were very different from those on the Blue Sea Star.

The ocean on the main body of Blue Sea Star actually reduces the difficulty of construction on that planet, while the engineering projects on the Origin Star still need to overcome many new technical and engineering difficulties.

"We have currently selected several locations for the base, please take a look."

He signaled to the staff on site to turn on the projection equipment, and a holographic projection immediately appeared in front of everyone. Everyone saw the planet map of the Origin Star with several light spots flashing on it. When they clicked on it, they saw that they were the Taka Continent, the Northern Base, and the Stuttgart Continental Plate.

"These are the best areas we have chosen. Let me explain in detail why we chose these areas." The young man clicked on one of the areas. Chen Lin noticed that it was the Taka Continent. In fact, this place was under his jurisdiction, but he didn't say anything to avoid attracting criticism.

The young man spoke in detail about the advantages of the Taka continent, basically describing some advantages in terms of geographical location. What the space elevator project team needs to ensure is the connection between the ground and the orbital space station in space. The geographical location itself is very important, and no one at the scene dared to refute this.

In the conference room, the project leader's explanation gave everyone a deeper understanding of the space elevator.

People soon realized that building such a huge project would require complex and diverse environmental factors to be considered. It would not only have benefits, but would also require them to invest a lot of money and manpower.

The project leader cleared his throat and continued, "Ladies and gentlemen, building a space elevator is not only a technical challenge, but also an environmental challenge. We need to consider not only the technical issues of the space elevator itself, but also its impact on the surrounding environment."

He turned to a large screen showing a diagram of the Earth and the space elevator.

He pointed to the screen and said: "First, the establishment of a space elevator will have an impact on the space environment of the origin star. The cables of the space elevator will collide with satellites and space debris in the orbit of the origin star, which may pollute the space environment and even affect the normal operation of satellites."

The project leader continued, "Secondly, the construction of a space elevator will also have an impact on the climate of the origin star. The cables of the space elevator will block some solar radiation, which may affect the climate of the origin star and even cause climate change."

Zhong Qingshu was shocked when he heard this. He did not expect that the construction of the space elevator would actually affect the climate on the Origin Star. For him, cultivating the land is the top priority in Darard. If the space elevator project causes problems with planting on the planet, that would be disastrous.

At this moment, he was somewhat glad that this time the space elevator project was not chosen on the continent of Dalard.

The project leader added, "Finally, the construction of a space elevator will also have an impact on the biodiversity of the Origin Star. The construction of a space elevator requires a large amount of land and resources, which may have an impact on the biodiversity of the Origin Star and even cause an ecological crisis. The most suitable location currently considered by the project team is actually the North Border Base. The environment there is relatively unique, and it is in an extremely cold area with a small number of organisms, which is more suitable."

After this speech, everyone at the scene fell silent. They realized that what the project leader had said several times was actually to persuade them to seriously consider the relevant content of the space elevator.

The project leader pointed to the North Base on the screen and continued to explain: "After careful consideration, we believe that the North Base is the most suitable location for building a space elevator."

"First, the environment of the North Base is very unique. It is located in an extremely cold area with extremely low temperatures, which helps reduce the wear and tear of the space elevator cables and extend their service life."

The project leader continued to explain: "Secondly, the number of organisms in the North Base is relatively small, which is indeed an advantage for building a space elevator. In addition, the geographical location of the North Base is also very advantageous. It is located near the North Pole of the Origin Star, which helps to reduce the friction between the space elevator cable and the rotation of the Origin Star and improve the operating efficiency of the space elevator."

"This is the temporary decision. Do you have any other opinions?"

The vice president sat on the stage without saying a word. The main purpose of his visit this time was actually to determine the final location of the space elevator through such a meeting. The actual content was too far away for him, and professional matters of course needed to be handled by professionals.

Chen Lin immediately expressed his agreement with the project leader's statement, and Zhong Qingshu was the second to support it.

After the two people expressed their opinions, Wu Qianqi, who was sitting not far away, immediately and decisively gave up the idea of ​​building a space elevator on his Omir continent. He directly stated that he did not want to do so and fully supported the project team's idea of ​​building a space elevator in the northern base.

"…plus, the space elevator itself is close to the portal of the Northern Base. The portal ensures that resources from the Blue Sea Star on the other side of the Northern Base can be continuously transported to support us, which can also reduce our initial investment."

"So the best location is the Northern Base?"

"That's pretty much what it means."

“Then I support the project team!”

"agree!"

"That's true. I also support the project team."

Everyone at the scene expressed their opinions one after another. The vice president glanced at them and then smiled and said, "Have you planned everything?"

“It’s planned!”

Wu Qianqi was the first to speak up: "Although this space elevator will have endless benefits in the future, it will consume a huge amount of resources in the early stages of its construction. In addition, it may have various impacts on an entire continental plate on the planet. After careful consideration, I decided to give up on it."

"Manager Wu is indeed a man who has thought things through carefully."

Zhong Qingshu joked on the side, Wu Qianqi glanced at him, "Why don't you put this thing on Dalade? See if there will be any problems with the land you planted over there!"

"you!"

Several people were exchanging words with each other, but Chen Lin was just watching the fun with a smile. At first, he thought that the space elevator could really be built on Taka, but as the person's words became more in-depth, he realized that setting it up on the Taka continent was not necessarily a good thing.

Everyone at the scene was arguing and discussing again. The vice president was not in a hurry and sat there chatting with the project team members with a smile. He saw Chen Lin sitting there with nothing to do, so he simply waved to Chen Lin and asked him to come up and sit with him.

Chen Lin didn't have any other thoughts at all, so he just walked up. After the two people sitting next to the vice president chatted with each other for a few words, everyone saw this scene.

The place suddenly became quiet. They all looked at Chen Lin, who was chatting and laughing with the vice president, in surprise. They didn't know what to say. (End of this chapter)
