Trisolarans: Trisolarans with the hard steel of the earth

So everyone returned to calm after being surprised, only Colonel Stanton's eyes flickered.

Since the battle on Judgment Day, the team behind him has been frantically searching for Lin Lang's information. One of the documents shows that Lin Lang once went abroad and went to Canada for a while.

Will this have a connection to the space station?

"Hehe, what Dr. Lin said sounds good, but we don't have that much money to burn. You know the cost of sending a person into space."

"So no more blank checks like this for us."

The embarrassing representative just now seemed to be at odds with Lin Lang, and said again in a neither soft nor hard way.

Lin Lang glanced at him appreciatively.

He himself almost thought that this person was invited by him to cheer him up.

"That's very good." Lin Lang nodded: "But that's all in the past. After the space station is completed, the cost of one round trip will only need four digits of RMB, and it's very convenient, and It’s almost like a sightseeing elevator.”

"..."

"how is this possible?!"

"Dr. Lin, are you joking?"

"This is simply fantasy!"

Lin Lang raised his hand and pressed it down, all doubts subsided for a while.

"As you have heard, everything is true."

Then a well-crafted 3D animation was shown on the screen, demonstrating the economy and efficiency of the space elevator.

After all, the elevator was invented to replace the time-consuming and laborious stairs.

The space elevator is naturally going to replace the time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly chemical rockets.

What age is it, and traditional rockets are still used?

"A group of country bumpkins, have you never seen the world?"

Seeing the scene where everyone's jaws were about to drop, Da Shi was immediately amused, and jokingly smiled: "I haven't seen it either."

Wang Miao: "..."

Chapter 57 The City of Sin and Poverty

Looking at Da Shi who laughed and mocked all the staff, Wang Miao thought, "Can I pretend that I don't know this person..."

But in fact, no one really cared about Shi Qiang's jokes, after all, their focus was on Lin Lang's screen.

"Is a space elevator really feasible?"

"Is there any high-strength material that can carry this kind of elevator?"

"How long will it take to build?"

Once they realized the high efficiency and low cost brought by the space elevator, everyone began to discuss the scientific research value that this kind of thing can bring.

After Lin Lang answered their questions one by one, all the representatives couldn't hide their excitement.

When the safety and reliability of the elevator are verified, scientists can be sent to space! !

"The completion of the space elevator will take about half a year. You can wait patiently and wait for my notice."

Lin Lang thought with a smile that this scene seemed a bit similar to buying electronic products in his previous life.

All cost-effective products have to be marketed in a monkey-style way, or even postponed, but buyers are still in an endless stream.

"Professor Wang."

"Why?" Wang Miao replied angrily.

Da Shi held an unlit cigarette in his mouth, looked at the excited crowd, and asked calmly like a passer-by:

"They are so excited, did they think of a way to deal with Trisolarans?"

"Of course not." Wang Miao shook his head and said, "Currently, neither the space station nor nanotechnology can pose any real threat to the Trisolarans."

"After all, our civilization is still like a baby in its infancy, far from being strong enough to compete with Trisolarans, and..."

Wang Miao said in a low voice: "At present, I can't see any hope. If sophons can really block the research of human microphysics, then no matter what we do, it will be in vain..."

"Understood." Da Shi looked at the crowd and said softly, "They are celebrating something meaningless."

"How can you say that?"

Unlike in the original book, after learning the truth about Sophon, Wang Miao was not so desperate. He corrected:

"If you don't do anything now, do you want to go home and sleep in under a blanket? It's always good for everyone to be active."

"Excessive positivity can easily turn into blind optimism, blind self-confidence, and finally completely turn into failure."

Da Shi commented coldly: "I don't think it's a good thing until you have the ability to absolutely defeat the enemy."

Lin Lang heard Da Shi's words through the noisy crowd.

In the original book, when Wang Miao and Ding Yi were in despair, it was Da Shi who told them that "bugs have never been completely wiped out", and now when everyone is blindly happy, he can coldly point out that this optimism is likely to remain. disaster...

Lin Lang couldn't help sighing, this is a man who can be calm at any time.

……

The Trisolaran matter was soon made public.

This kind of thing cannot be hidden, and there is no need to hide it.

PDC member states agreed that making this kind of thing public, although it will trigger some negative emotions, and some doomsayers will also be loud.

But at the same time, this act of solidarity around the world can even more stimulate the powerful motivation buried in the genes of the human species.

Overall, it is a behavior that does more good than harm.

Sure enough, things were as expected. After learning that "aliens are about to descend on the earth", people's first reaction, apart from thinking it was a joke, was anger.

Why?

The earth has been the home of mankind since tens of thousands of years ago.

Aliens want a better environment, so they will come to rob our home and drive us to extinction?

All of a sudden, the crowd was furious, and large-scale demonstrations emerged from all over the world, expressing their desire to fight the alien invaders to the end.

Of course, this kind of excitement and anger is partly the first reaction, and partly is the PDC's deliberate guidance, so it's hard to say.

All in all, the current mainstream thought in human society is to "defeat Trisolarans"...

However, for most people in this world, this kind of "fake big air" topic related to the survival of human beings in hundreds of years is not even comparable to mosquito bites.

They can't even drink a sip of clean water, and they can't choose between bark or grass roots for their next meal.

Human future survival?

They don't care.

Wali, a young man from Nanyanzhou, is one of these people.

The night, like the foul-smelling black smoke from a factory, enveloped the city.

Wally dragged his bruised body and limped along the dark alley.

He was covered in livid purple, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, and his left eye was bulging like a light bulb.

Today I met a master in black boxing.

If he hadn't been ruthless enough to give that bastard opponent a blast with his teeth, he would be cold and thrown into the garbage dump.

Of course, he also paid the price of an eye.

People like Wally are all too common in the world's largest slum.

No one cares whether a bug lives or dies.

Wally walked cautiously in the dark alley with the 5 reals (a currency with a 1:[-] exchange rate to US dollars) that he got from winning the fight.

He is exhausted now, and he can only look forward to walking into his shack in the slum sooner rather than later.

This city is like a beast, which will show its sharp fangs in the middle of the night.

Robbery, qj, murder...

It plays out every day.

"Hey! Where is the product I want!! Bitchi!"

"X you XX! Where's the money!!"

From the darkness, it looked like two groups were arguing violently.

Wally hurriedly moved away, he had seen this kind of transactions quite often.

"Damn it! Is this a [-] dollar magic medicine? Just a small bottle?!"

"Nonsense! Hurry up and give me the money!!"

"Don't worry, we still have to inspect the goods, hehe, I heard that if you take this medicine, the dead can come back to life!"

"medicine?"

Wall-E heard a few words in his ringing ears.

His eager steps to leave also gradually stopped.

He looked at the past with the only remaining eyeball in the dark corner...

One of them was holding a glass bottle, the size of a fingertip, with a crystal blue halo, mixed with silvery white spots in the middle.

He looked at it for a long time, and was about to reluctantly withdraw his gaze and leave.

"Damn it! Fake money!! Brothers! Fuck them!"

Bang bang bang! !

Under the cover of night, a burst of intense gunshots rang out, but did not cause any waves, as if people had long been used to it.

After a brief firefight, there was only one person left on the winning side. He laughed, picked up the medicine bottle in the safe, and was about to leave.

With a crisp click, his head saw his heel.
