The Great Elder took a deep breath. As the leader of a large country with a population of 14 billion, the Great Elder quickly regained his composure and said, "Xiao Chen, the matter is of great importance. I need to convene an enlarged meeting of the Council of Elders immediately. I hope you You can also attend!"

Chen Xin smiled and nodded, "It's an honor!"

……

Two hours later, in a meeting room of ZNH.

The seven standing elders of the Presbyterian Church and more than twenty alternate elders packed the conference room to the brim. Except for a few elders who were unable to attend because they were away from other places, almost all the core members of the Chinese power hierarchy were present.

In addition, more than ten top scientists with important influence in the scientific research field of the Republic attended the meeting.

After all the people arrived, the Great Elder made an opening remark: "Today's meeting was held in a hurry, but because of the urgency of the matter, I can't take care of so much for the time being! The person next to me must be familiar to everyone. Mr. Chen Xin, this meeting is also related to the news that Mr. Chen just told me!"

The Great Elder paused for a moment, and continued: "I think everyone knows that a month ago, on behalf of the Republic, I reached an agreement with the War Bureau. After the two aerospace planes of the War Bureau are in place, we will discuss the space elevator plan at the elders meeting." However, after hearing the news, I don’t think there is any need to wait so long. The main topic of this meeting is whether our country should fully support the Space Elevator Project of the War Bureau. Prior to this, Chen Mr. Xin will announce to everyone the latest discovery of the Bureau of War and Oblivion!"

talking.The Great Elder nodded towards Chen Xin.

Everyone also focused their attention on Chen Xin, wanting to hear what kind of important discovery made the Great Elder call everyone together so recklessly, and several elders even postponed the original appointment because of this. foreign affairs activities.

Chen Xin stood up, glanced at everyone's faces, and said slowly: "Hello, leaders. Today, on behalf of the War and Suspense Bureau, I formally notified the Republic of the important discoveries made by our Firefly probe on Mars—I Fang found an ice layer inside an extinct volcano at 72.1 degrees south latitude and 125.6 degrees west longitude on Mars! In other words, there is water on Mars!"

After Chen Xin finished speaking, the meeting room became completely silent. At this moment, almost everyone turned into sculptures.His eyes stared at Chen Xin motionlessly.Everyone seemed to be shocked by the news, and some elders who were drinking water didn't even notice that the cups in their hands were crooked.

"Water on Mars?!"

The first to respond were the dozen or so top scientists specially invited to participate in the meeting. A rocket expert surnamed Nie said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Chen, are you sure that there is really water on Mars?"

Chen Xin nodded with a smile, took out a round tray and placed it in the center of the conference table, pressed the button on the side and said: "This is some data captured by our Firefly probe on Mars. Everyone can take a look!"

The small mesh hole in the center of the tray casts streaks of bright light, forming a 3D holographic projection image above the conference table.

Chen Xin continued: "I think everyone should remember the Forbes-Soil probe a few months ago? After it was repaired by the Bureau of War and Oblivion, a small Mars probe made by the Bureau of War and Oblivion was placed on it. We named it the Firefly. Later, the Firefly successfully landed on Mars, and has been doing some basic scientific exploration work on Mars for several months. To be honest, we did not expect to find subsurface ice on Mars. The presence."

Everyone in the meeting room looked at each other, and for a moment, no one knew what to say.

When the Bureau of War and Ignorance repaired the Forbes-Soil Mars rover, although China and Russia took advantage of it.At that time, they were wondering whether the Bureau of War and Omission would do something to the Forbes-Soil Mars Rover.

Only now did they know that the Forbes-Soil was carrying an uninvited guest from the War Bureau.

There was a buzz in the conference room, and most people were talking with their heads down.

After everyone digested his words, Chen Xin said: "Okay, I won't say much about the rest, everyone should look at the data captured by the Firefly before talking about it!"

The conference room fell silent again.Everyone stared intently at the 3D holographic projection of Mars above the desktop.

Even the Great Elder is no exception. After all, the images of Mars that humans currently see are all from the images taken by the American rover Opportunity, Spirit, and Curiosity, and the holographic projection presented by the War Bureau that is comparable to high-definition movies. No comparison at all.

The duration of the video is about one and a half hours. Gang Jun intercepted all the wonderful shots taken by the Firefly after landing on Mars, combined them by category, and added a baritone commentary to form a fairly comprehensive Mars documentary. , even these laymen from the political world in the Presbyterian Church can fully understand it.

The voice of the commentary is not too fast, from the origin and evolution of Mars to the atmosphere of Mars, landform and topography, soil and rock, physical field and internal structure, etc., and explained and introduced Mars in detail.

Inside is the vast wasteland of Mars, towering mountains, terrifying sandstorms, sunrise and sunset, and two moons shining together. All kinds of wonders shocked everyone in the meeting room.

It is not until the second half of the video that the footage of the extinct volcano where the subsurface ice was discovered begins to appear.

Gang Beng named the volcano Phoenix Mountain.

When the Firefly probe entered the interior of Phoenix Mountain, almost everyone was shocked by the huge space and peculiar geological structure inside Phoenix Mountain. When the ice was thick, these high-ranking officials who had always shown a calm and composed image in the past couldn't help but exclaim.

As for those scientists, they were all brilliant. Some aerospace experts even started to conduct academic discussions in a low voice, regardless of being in an important meeting place.

Chen Xin put away the holographic projector and said: "Currently, the Bureau of War and Ignorance is preparing to launch a second probe to Mars to conduct an all-round survey of this area and determine the amount of ice in the deep strata of this area. Prepare for the establishment of a Mars base and even a Mars city in one step. Based on the principle of complementary resources, we hope that China can also join in this plan.”

The meeting room gradually became quiet, and everyone couldn't help but look at each other. Finally, everyone focused their eyes on the Great Elder.

The Great Elder said slowly: "The value of Mars development must be clear to everyone. Large-scale space development and water resources are important factors that cannot be ignored. When Mr. Chen proposed to me to jointly develop space elevators, I was still a little hesitant. I am worried that it will affect the domestic economic development. But now, the discovery of ice on Mars has made this planet have extremely important strategic value. Personally, I think that the cooperation with the Bureau of War and Neglect to develop a space elevator is a rare opportunity for our country It is of great significance to our country's ability to control the right to speak in the solar system in the future, so I personally agree to cooperate with the Bureau of War and Neglect, and it depends on everyone's opinions."

Elder No. [-] interjected: "The Great Elder is right. The development of Mars may not be able to see much results in our generation, but it is of great significance to our next generation, the next generation, and even the future of mankind. I personally Agree."

"I agree!"

"I agree."

Next, all the standing elders and alternate elders of the Presbyterian Church also expressed their agreement.

When it was the scientists' turn to speak, Mr. Nie looked at Chen Xin with piercing eyes, and said, "Mr. Chen, I would like to ask on behalf of the aerospace industry, has the War and Neglected Bureau really prepared the technical reserves for colonizing Mars? You It should be clear that based on China's current technological level, large-scale space development requires countless resources, and if it is not technically prepared, it will be a catastrophe for this country."

Chen Xin smiled and said, "I can guarantee this! There is absolutely no problem with the technology."

Old Nie stared at Chen Xin for a long time before saying solemnly: "Okay, then I will trust you! I agree with Zhan Huju's proposal!" (To be continued~^~)
