You Say You Believe in Science, But You Fly on a Sword - Chapter 88
Chapter 88: Malaysia Is Gone
The three-day holiday ended quickly, and the Nine Heavens Research Group, reluctantly concluding their vacation, returned to the Imperial Capital, now gathered in the Conference Room for a meeting.
“The research on the Imperial Seal, I’ve already handed it over to others. It was Minister Liu who personally assigned them. ”
Su Qin’an was sitting at the forefront, speaking.
If anyone previously questioned Su Qin’an’s abilities, now, with the youth sitting at the forefront of the Conference Room, gathering everyone’s gaze, no one dared to question him anymore.
He had become, without a doubt, a Big Shot in the Nine Heavens Research Group, and even in the scientific circles of China.
“Next, our quests are two. ”
Before Su Qin’an spoke, he knocked on the table and said, “The Nantianmen Plan, and, reaching the Solar System Frontier—I call it the Chongxi Plan. ”
Two seemingly unrelated quests, which in reality were completely unrelated, were placed together by Su Qin’an.
“Is the Nantianmen Plan finally going to be put on the agenda? ”
Li Weimin’s eyes lit up: “But reaching the Solar System Frontier… is there any connection between the two? ”
“That, connection… ”
Su Qin’an cleared his throat: “We shouldn’t focus too much on the connection… ”
As he spoke, Su Qin’an began his great task of persuasion, going from the origin of the universe to where we come from and where we are going, and then to exploring the unknown and improving our understanding, directly persuading for half an hour: “Actually, there have always been two contradictory problems in you. And the answers to these questions have to start with the origin of the universe. Where did you come from, where are you going… ”
“Alright, alright, stop persuading! ”
Sun Ruilei quickly interrupted Su Qin’an’s long speech: “Just say what you want to do! You give the objective, and we’ll do the work! ”
“That’s right, everyone should learn from Comrade Sun Ruilei, acting decisively and efficiently! ”
Su Qin’an said, opening the large screen to show a PPT: “I’ve put the details here… ”
“Does he not know how to use diapers? ”
Zhang Xian muttered, seeing that no one noticed him, immediately resumed a serious expression and focused on the meeting.
Oh no, it’s not that no one noticed, at least Sun Ruilei glared at him.
“Come, everyone look, regarding the Nantianmen Plan and the Chongxi Plan, I’ve decided to start with the most basic propulsion system. ”
Su Qin’an opened the PPT and began to explain: “First, there are three engines… ”
On the PPT, there were three advanced engines—the Antimatter Engine, the Warp Drive, and the Fusion Engine.
“Currently, we can start with the Fusion Engine, then use Controllable Nuclear Fusion as a medium to attempt to break through the Warp Drive… ”
“The Bai Di Space Fighter can fly and fight both inside and outside the atmosphere… ”
“The Luan Bird Spaceborne Carrier can carry 88 Xuan Bird Space Fighters, further expanding the operational range… ”
The Nantianmen Plan was proposed a long time ago, and it once caused panic internationally, especially in Uncle Sam.
Because once the Nantianmen Plan is realized, China will be on an irreversible path of revival and growth, and may even lead the world by fifty or a hundred years.
So how should Uncle Sam, who has long considered itself the “world police,” handle itself?
There’s a famous saying in the West: “China is the sleeping lion of the East. ”
But after that, there’s another sentence: “Since it’s sleeping, let it never wake up! ”
Once the Nantianmen Plan is realized, all countries in the world will have to give face to China, and even if there are some shortcomings in other areas, no one will dare to negotiate terms.
But such a grand plan, to fully explain it, would certainly take a considerable amount of time.
Even though Su Qin’an had tried his best to explain it using simple and easy-to-understand language, because everyone’s thinking speed was very fast, and they also asked many questions, by the time Su Qin’an finished explaining everything, the sun had already set in the west.
The meeting started at 9:30 in the morning and lasted until around 5:00 in the afternoon, excluding an hour for lunch, a total of nearly seven hours.
Fortunately, the Ministry of Science and Technology provided lunch, so everyone didn’t have to work while their eyes were bloodshot from hunger; China’s work system is still very humane.
…
Pacific Ocean Floor, Ghost Race base.
“We can act. ”
A Ghost Commander was sitting in front of a very high-tech holographic projection screen, speaking: “Initially, we should expand our population as quickly as possible and minimize casualties, so my strategy is to avoid these several nations first. ”
As he spoke, his finger swept across the world map on the screen, pausing over China, Uncle Sam, Russia, Japan, and several other nations: “Avoid them, start with the weaker nations. I think this nation… ”
He pointed to Malaysia near Southeast Asia: “And these nations… ”
His finger then slid to South America on the east coast of the Pacific Ocean: “Starting with these nations is a risk-free venture, absolutely foolproof. ”
The Ghost Commander smiled: “Once our population is large enough, and the progress of our rear technology has reached half of its peak period, we will use Earth as our base, conquer the Solar System first, then the Milky Way Galaxy, and then restore the Ghost Race to its peak! ”
“By the way, tell the people at the Ministry of Science and Technology that they must get the results before we conquer Earth! ”
The Ghost Commander suddenly remembered and said: “I can feel that this Earth and our ancestral planet are very different, but also very similar… It must be done as quickly as possible. This is the foundation for our conquest of the Hundred Races and our return to the peak! ”
“Yes! ”
…
At eight o’clock the next morning, everyone from the Ministry of Science and Technology gathered in the Conference Room.
This was a notice that Liu Qiming had sent out late last night, notifying everyone to come to the Ministry of Science and Technology for a meeting this morning, and that no leave was allowed. Even if they were crippled, they had to crawl there.
Liu Qiming has always been a good Minister who cares about his employees; for him to say this, something serious must have happened.
“Everyone, take a look! ”
As soon as Liu Qiming entered the Conference Room, he projected a news item from 2:00 AM onto the large screen: “Alien species have attacked! ”
The news was a video.
Countless semi-illusory figures, armed with guns and cannons, surrounded Malaysia under the cover of night, and then began to land!
Malaysia’s national strength has always been rather weak, with a weak national defense. The entire country mainly relies on the tertiary industry, that is, tourism and services, to develop its economy.
Such a nation, caught in a surprise attack and completely unprepared, how could it possibly withstand the Ghost Race’s army?
Although the Malaysian border guards discovered the Ghost Race’s invasion, in their panic and with their outdated equipment, they were quickly completely annihilated.
Fortunately, a relatively clever soldier, before his death, sent a message informing the Malaysian Minister of National Defense of the situation here.
The footage ended, and Liu Qiming’s heavy voice sounded: “Everyone, let’s discuss what to do. ”
…
The same scene was playing out in the Ministry of Defense Conference Room, less than a hundred meters away.
Zhang Keqiang tapped the table with one hand and rested the other on the armrest of his chair: “Malaysia… its national defense is weak, so these people targeted them first… ”
Those people had also appeared at the border of Yunnan Province in China before.
Finally, Liu Qiming recommended and Zhang Keqiang vouched for Su Qin’an to solve the Ghost Race problem.
However, so far, the existence of the Ghost Race is only known to a very small number of high-ranking officials within China. For others, they are working hard to suppress the news to prevent panic.
Someone asked: “Does the Minister know about them? ”
Zhang Keqiang nodded: “Before, they were causing trouble at the Yunnan border, but that boy Su Qin’an dealt with them. Now… ”
Zhang Keqiang’s gaze returned to the large screen behind him: “Since they’re acting on a large scale, then… the things the Ministry of Science and Technology is researching aren’t just for show! “
