My science and technology museum

"Is everyone here?" Xu Lei asked casually while sitting on the sofa in the president's room of Longhu High-Tech Park in Binjiang City, tasting tea, looking at Xingtong's mechanical body.

Today is the day when the first meeting of the Human Security Alliance is held.

As a core member, he will definitely attend.

And at this meeting, the specific implementation plan to deal with the Pluto crisis needs to be announced to the global forces.

In this way, global resources can be mobilized to complete the project.

Because this time the meeting was held in the virtual world, Xu Lei could share the execution plan in his mind directly at the venue, so there was no need to prepare anything.

In short, after the meeting, the world will speed up.

But Xu Lei really had no intention of waiting for anyone, so he first asked about the arrival status of the Star Pupil Alliance members.

As the Human Security Alliance that currently has the highest authority, it has more than 200 members. Except for the six permanent core members including Future Technology, the rest are ordinary members, and they only have the right to make suggestions and cannot Interfering in alliance decisions.

Even for decisions passed by the alliance, they must be implemented unconditionally.

Otherwise, it will be a violation of the Human Security Law, and you will be punished in all aspects, and the person in charge of the member force will be directly replaced.

The original intention of doing this is to better gather global resources and work in one place, so that we can defeat Pluto and survive this crisis smoothly.

Faced with Xu Lei's inquiry, Xing Tong didn't hesitate at all and answered directly.

"Yes, boss, the consciousness of all alliance members has been connected to the conference hall."

"Yes, I understand." After confirming the news, Xu Lei put down his coffee cup and nodded, then stood up and walked straight towards the virtual cabin next to him.

It can be said that Xu Lei is already familiar with the virtual cabin. After opening the door and lying down smoothly, as the virtual cabin officially started, his eyes went dark at first and then brightened again.

For this meeting, Xu Lei asked Xingtong to build a special building.

To simply describe it in four words, it is spectacular.

After all, the virtual world is not restricted by various rules like the real world. No matter what kind of building you want here, Xingtong can build it in a very short time, and there is no need to consider many issues such as cleaning and aging. It can be said that Not even the Union Buildings can compare.

"This outfit is quite elegant. Let's go in." After Xu Lei regained consciousness, he lowered his gaze and looked at his outfit. The blue suit paired with a red tie, and the black leather shoes on his feet could only be so formal. , he expressed great satisfaction with this, and then pushed open the door and entered the hall with Xingtong.

In fact, Xu Lei was dressed very casually in the room, because the virtual world can change his clothes at will, which is much more convenient.

The entire conference hall occupies a very large area. The first thing that catches the eye when entering is the ring-shaped seats, which belong to ordinary members of the alliance.

If you control your gaze to move towards the center, there are six special seats belonging to core members.

Because Xu Lei deliberately waited until everyone else arrived before entering the virtual world, he attracted everyone's attention as soon as he appeared.

Especially when everyone saw the figure of Xingtong next to Xu Lei, their expressions became brighter, but they did not dare to say anything during the whole process, they just watched Xu Lei walk towards the only remaining seat of the core members in the middle.

Mainly now they all know what kind of existence Xingtong is.

Let alone the most advanced artificial intelligence, just constructing such an almost real virtual world can only express admiration.

Anyone who doesn't open their eyes at this time may be forced offline directly.

By that time, you won't even be able to attend the first meeting of the Human Security Alliance. It would be too embarrassing if word spread. Besides, Xu Lei is still the elected commander-in-chief of the Pluto project, so they must give him enough respect.

As Xu Lei took his seat, the first meeting of the Human Security Alliance finally officially began.

"Welcome everyone to attend this meeting that is related to the survival of human civilization. The theme of this meeting is also very clear, that is, to determine the solution to Pluto." Representative Yanfang, who was also sitting in the middle seat, looked at it with a smile. After one glance, Xu Lei took the initiative to stir up the topic, eliminating those time-wasting processes in ordinary meetings, as if he came with a goal in mind today.

In any case, a solution to the Pluto crisis must be adopted, and human civilization itself must actively save itself.

It has been a long time since the traces of Pluto were discovered by future technology, confirmed by astronomers around the world, and today.

However, there is still no efficient plan to minimize losses.

On the contrary, Xu Lei relied on a Shenzhou ship to successfully gather the public's self-confidence and prevent the situation from getting too bad. Otherwise, if the panic on Pluto spreads, nothing might happen.

Before today's meeting, everyone had basically tacitly agreed and reached a common understanding, that is, to follow Xu Lei's arrangements.

I believe that future technology can successfully solve this crisis.

So almost the moment Yan Fang's representative's voice fell, everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Lei.

Speaking of it, it was also the first time for Xu Lei to bear the gaze of so many pairs of eyes on such an occasion. Even if he was prepared, he would still feel a little pressure.

After all, this represents responsibility.

But this was in a virtual world after all. Xu Lei soon adjusted his state. After clearing his throat with two tactical coughs, he began to describe his long-decided plan.

"Cough~"

"Hello everyone."

"I think everyone is very aware of the situation we humans are currently facing, so I don't have any nonsense here."

"First of all, the crisis on Pluto will definitely be resolved."

"But in order to ensure the safety of people's lives, I have a three-step plan here."

When Xu Lei said this, he deliberately stopped himself and asked Xingtong to transmit his three-step plan to everyone while others were thinking, so that they could check and understand the contents on their own first.

The three-step plan involves many levels and contains a lot of content. If it is all done by mouth, I don’t know how long it will be delayed.

It's better to check it yourself.

To put it simply, Xu Lei's three-step plan can be summarized into three measures against Pluto.

First of all, the world's aerospace equipment manufacturing institutions must be put into operation to manufacture at least ten kinetic energy weapons in the next six years, because these kinetic energy weapons will be launched about a year and a half in advance, and will eventually be near Pluto and Jupiter. Collision.

If all goes well, Pluto will be forced to change its orbit due to the impact, and eventually become a satellite of Jupiter.

besides.

It is necessary to deploy several planetary defense orbital guns in the orbits of the Earth and Mars.

If the kinetic energy weapon impact plan fails and Pluto does not change its flight trajectory as planned and is captured by Jupiter, then these planetary defense orbital guns will be relied on to completely destroy Pluto.

In some ways, the planetary defense railgun is a complementary program to kinetic energy weapons.

Planetary defense railguns can only be used to great effect if kinetic energy weapons are disabled.

As the saying goes, eggs cannot be put in the same basket. When it comes to the safety of the entire human civilization, we must be extremely cautious and detail-oriented.

As for the last step of the three-step plan, it is related to the dormant cabin of the technological exhibit previously unlocked in the hall of the Science and Technology Museum.

In Xu Lei's plan, he plans to use the dormant cabin technology to build an underground dormant base, and use a controllable nuclear fusion device to provide energy for the base. However, since there are currently 8 billion people in the world, it is conceivable that the underground dormant base will be three It is the largest project in the step-by-step plan. How much progress can be completed in the limited eight years and how many people can be accommodated for hibernation can only depend on God's will.

The underground dormant base is Xu Lei’s legacy to human civilization.

It is equivalent to the last chance of survival.

After all, Pluto has a diameter of 20 kilometers and flies very fast. Even if the planetary defense orbital gun can be deployed successfully, it may not be able to crush it to a small enough size.

As long as a slightly larger piece of debris hits the surface of the planet, it will inevitably cause a serious disaster, with the power equivalent to the explosion of a large number of hydrogen bombs at the same time.

The key follow-up is that the environment of the earth and planet will undergo major changes, various natural disasters will occur, and eventually it will no longer be suitable for human habitation.

If this happens, the fragile human body will simply not be able to survive.

It is not known how many deaths there will be by then.

Therefore, it is the best way to hibernate in an underground hibernation base.

Although this dormant cabin can only maintain the physical functions of living creatures for fifty years, it is believed that with the speed of technological development of human civilization, it will not take so many years to restore the environment of the planet.

It is no exaggeration to say that Xu Lei's three-step plan will not only guarantee that all threats to Pluto will be eliminated, but at least the continuation of human civilization will be 100% guaranteed.

It may even become a second-level civilization in a few decades.

I don't know how much time has passed, but in short, everyone in the conference hall except Xu Lei is focused on the three-step plan, and while studying it, they are also thinking about its feasibility.

Future Technology has created the first interstellar battleship of human civilization and successfully tested a heavy rail gun, so it should not matter whether it is a kinetic energy weapon or a planetary defense rail gun, but after all, I have never heard of sleep capsules and cannot guarantee that humans will sleep. Will I be able to wake up later?

What's more, in order to build an underground dormant base that can accommodate so many people, construction needs to be started simultaneously on a global scale. The resources and manpower involved are absolutely unimaginable.

However, everyone can also see the gold content in this plan. At least it can indeed solve the crisis of Pluto.

So under this comprehensive balance, Representative Yan Fang took the lead in proposing the proposal, and Xiong Ying and the others followed closely behind.

Only the Beijing Magnesium representative put forward a different view.

"Congressman Xu Lei, I think the plan to build an underground dormant base should be scrapped and resources should be invested in star battleships, because outer space is the safest when the local star is in crisis."

Hearing this unfamiliar voice, Xu Lei subconsciously turned his head and looked to the right.

The person who spoke was a man over fifty years old. He was dressed in the uniform of a supreme commander. Looking up and down, he looked quite imposing.

Xu Lei knew this person.

Before attending the conference, Xingtong had obtained the detailed information of all personnel, including the other party.

Due to age and physical problems, Lao Te has stepped down from his original position and is not involved in worldly affairs. For such an important position as the representative of the permanent core member of the Human Security Alliance, suitable personnel must be sent to take over.

Enoch is the new spokesman.

Of course, Xu Lei was not dissatisfied because of this.

In any case, the theme of this meeting is to determine the plan to deal with Pluto. It is normal for some people to have different opinions. They must be discussed by everyone anyway.

As for Enoch's idea of ​​putting resources on the interstellar battleship and abolishing his underground dormant base, Xu Lei can say that his plan is very clear. He just wants to build the so-called Noah's Ark for a few people, but this Ark is Space version.

If the Earth is really hit by an asteroid, it is indeed the safest way to leave in an interstellar spacecraft.

But there are still eight years at most before the arrival of Pluto. Even if all resources are concentrated to build interstellar battleships, the number that can eventually be put into use will be very limited. You must know that the difficulty of manufacturing interstellar battleships is higher than that of fusion power stations. , at most a few ships can be built in a few years.

But the crux of the matter is, what does having just a few starships change?

The number of people that can be taken away is very small, and it cannot even guarantee the normal continuation of human civilization.

It's not that Xu Lei has not considered interstellar battleships, but it is obvious that human civilization does not yet have the ability to immigrate to interstellar space, so the only way to survive is the earth.

With his mind running quickly, Xu Lei was too lazy to argue too much with the other party on this matter, and said directly: "Congressman Enoch, if you think that interstellar battleships are more suitable for the current situation on Earth, you can invest your own resources in manufacturing them. , I guarantee that our technology will never interfere in the future.”

The words just fell.

The entire conference hall suddenly fell into deathly silence.

Enoch looked even more embarrassed, his face turned red from holding back but he couldn't say a word.

After all, they don't have the technology to build interstellar battleships at all, and they haven't even solved the problem of controllable nuclear fusion, so losing the assistance of future technology is a complete loss.

In addition, Xu Lei's words once again made it clear to everyone that if we want to solve the Pluto crisis, we can only rely on future technology.

In this case, Xu Lei must do what he says, and he has no qualifications to raise different opinions.

With Enoch's incident as a lesson learned, the follow-up process was extremely smooth. In the end, the Human Security Alliance collectively approved Xu Lei's three-step plan and will announce it to the world after the meeting.

Of course, it is quite difficult to complete these three-step planning process and requires the joint efforts of global forces.

Fortunately, regarding the division of labor, Xingtong has already made the most suitable arrangements based on the advantages of each region.

First of all, overseas forces mainly manufacture kinetic energy weapons, planetary defense rail guns, and accessories for interstellar battleships. Future Technology is responsible for the core components, and experts in this field will go overseas to provide technical guidance to ensure that each component can be completed on time.

As for the underground dormant base, the construction of it requires global participation.

No matter whether it can satisfy eight billion people in the end, the goal is to improve the progress as much as possible.

In addition, in order to ensure a stable supply of energy in the area where the manufacturing plant is located, Future Technology will also build several fusion power stations overseas.

But unlike domestic fusion power stations, these overseas fusion power stations will be controlled by Xingtong. If the other party violates the laws of the Human Security Alliance during use, the energy will be cut off directly.

When facing external threats, some unconventional means must be used to ensure stability, so as not to affect the manufacture of kinetic energy weapons and planetary defense rail guns.

The meeting officially ended after nearly three hours. As the representatives of various forces closed the virtual cabin and separated their consciousness from the meeting hall, the three-step plan for Pluto was also announced. .

Many people have been looking forward to today's meeting since the establishment of the Human Security Alliance, and want to know what kind of plan Xu Lei will come up with.

You must know that although future technology has shown interstellar battleships, a high-tech equipment that can only appear in science fiction movies, it only used a heavy rail gun to smash a meteorite. Although the power is indeed amazing, no one can guarantee that it will face the underworld. What kind of performance will the God Star perform? Therefore, only when a detailed and specific implementation plan is released, coupled with the strength of future technology, can everyone truly rest assured.

So when the three-step plan was announced, it quickly aroused heated discussions on major platforms and websites around the world.

Especially after everyone saw that Xu Lei had formulated a triple guarantee, they felt even more secure, as if it wouldn't be too scary even if Pluto really collided with the Earth.

Comments on related content can be seen everywhere in the comments section.

"Sure enough, it is an extremely correct decision to elect Mr. Xu as a member of the Human Security Alliance. After reading this three-step plan, I feel that Pluto no longer needs to worry."

"I estimate that by then kinetic energy weapons alone will be able to change Pluto's flight trajectory. The remaining planetary defense orbital guns and underground dormant bases will not be used at all. We can only wait for aliens to play their role in the future."

“There is absolutely nothing wrong with believing in future technology.”

"Please tell me where I can sign up to participate in the construction of the underground dormant base. I will never refuse if I need help."

"I hope that in the next few years, everyone will be less addicted to the virtual world and help more with the construction of real-world projects. After all, if something goes wrong on the Earth Star, it will be too late to regret it."

"It is recommended that Future Technology temporarily close the virtual world."

"There are still eight years left, and for some reason I am suddenly looking forward to this day."

…

Xu Lei definitely didn't have time to check the public comments on the Internet. After the three-step plan was formally determined, he would need to spend a lot of energy to implement it.

What needs to be solved most right now is kinetic energy weapons.

In the three-step plan, kinetic energy weapons are the most critical link, and with the need to launch to Jupiter in advance, the remaining manufacturing time will only be shorter.

The planetary defense railgun evolved from the heavy railgun, the main weapon of the interstellar battleship. The heavy railgun only needs to be disassembled separately and equipped with a nuclear fusion reaction device to provide launch energy, so it is not too difficult technically. place.

The dormant cabin was a technological exhibit previously unlocked in the hall of the Science and Technology Museum, and all its detailed technical knowledge was in his mind.

Just draw the blueprints in the virtual world and start building.

The only kinetic energy weapon required him to constantly design and adjust parameters, which was the most troublesome thing.

Moreover, the modeling of the kinetic energy weapon has not been completed until now, which made Xu Lei feel a sense of urgency, especially after returning from the conference hall.

After all, kinetic energy weapons must be manufactured first. If the modeling is delayed, it will affect all subsequent progress.

When time is limited, the number of kinetic energy weapons that can be put into use will definitely be limited.

This is likely to cause the kinetic energy weapon to collide with Pluto, and its power will not be able to change Pluto's flight orbit, so all efforts will be in vain.

So in order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, the first thing Xu Lei did when he came out of the virtual cabin was to continue to improve the modeling of kinetic energy weapons.

"Xingtong, bring out the modeling of the kinetic energy weapon. I want to perfect it as soon as possible."

"Okay boss."

Seeing his boss coming out of the virtual cabin, Xingtong wanted to hand over a glass of water first, but after hearing this instruction, he quickly responded to the execution order.

During the last modeling process, Xu Lei had made many attempts on the main materials of kinetic energy weapons, but the final calculated and simulated values ​​still did not reach the ideal state. For this reason, Xu Lei could only constantly adjust various parameters. , hoping to successfully pass the simulation test.

He believed that with the manufacturing technology of interstellar battleships in his mind, there would be no problem in designing a kinetic weapon that could change the flight path of Pluto.

At the same time, just as Xu Lei was working on perfecting kinetic weapons without sleep or food, various parts of the world began to take real action.

With the technical support of Future Technology, overseas regions have begun to participate in the manufacturing of star battleship accessories and planetary defense rail guns. In addition, the construction of fusion power stations will also begin next month.

However, since the underground dormant base needs to select a suitable location first, the project has not started yet.

To ensure the stability of the dormant base and to ensure that the earth and stars are not affected by severe natural disasters and environmental changes, in addition to the location of the base needing to be deep enough, there are also certain requirements for the soil structure.

Therefore, it is necessary to determine the suitable construction location through preliminary detection before excavation can begin.

However, what is surprising and touching is that many people from all over the country voluntarily signed up to participate in the construction without compulsion, which greatly eased the pressure and made them more confident in building the number of bases that can accommodate human hibernation around the world.

Who knows that the number of smart industrial robots is currently limited, and they still need to stick to production and manufacturing jobs to ensure the city's living needs, so they cannot participate in the construction of the base at all.

This makes it possible to rely on humans themselves.

Fortunately, Xu Lei's side went smoothly. In just a few days, his latest designed kinetic energy weapon successfully passed the simulation test and could officially start manufacturing.
