Earth Invasion

Chapter 16 L3

After the last legendary Russian woman, Nikolayevna Palyukina, died in her third presidential term, the oligarchs who had been suppressed in Palyudina's reforms fought back against Palyudna's successor and emerging forces, and finally, with Bounded by the Caucasus Mountains, Russia was divided into the Russian Federal Republic and the Russian Democratic Republic, also known as Western Russia and Eastern Russia.Among them, Western Russia is still moving closer to Europe, while Eastern Russia has started a difficult recovery by using the legacy of Siberia development left by Palyutina.

Hundreds of years later, West Russia, which has run into walls everywhere in NATO, finally couldn't stand the cold ass of the Europeans, and began to turn its eyes to space.And the space circle finally has a reliable ground-friendly force on the ground.

At the same time, NATO, which has no space satellites, is not reconciled to not having an independent space industry.Under the stubborn temper of the red neck of the United States and the exquisite old Europe, the NATO Council pried open all the national museums and private collections, and collected all the Chinese cultural relics lost to the West since the first Opium War in 1840. Going to the BJ Palace Museum is for one thing - to give NATO one of the asteroids that have been dug into cheese by the SCO, and then use the planetary slingshot to push it to L3.

After Zhang Mai's spacecraft entered the L3 airspace, this large industrial satellite transformed from an asteroid with a diameter of [-] kilometers was doing a lonely autobiography there.The interior of this irregularly shaped asteroid is a space factory and port, and the spherical buildings that use nanotubes to stick on this small star like pins are ancillary facilities of this industrial satellite—mostly It is for people to live in.This weird shape reminded Zhang Mai of sea urchins.And, now that this hybrid of man-made and natural is in the shadow of the Earth, the glowing material on the satellite makes this thing look like a noctilucent sea urchin in the deep ocean.

L3, NATO's industrial satellite - Picasso.The place where Zhang Mai will practice is here.Perhaps only Picasso's style is worthy of the strange appearance of this satellite.Farther away, several wind-shaped integrated satellites and ring-mounted habitable satellites that were pushed here from L5 also shone with silvery-white light.Around these satellites, dozens of large engineering ships are nervously building new cylindrical industrial satellites and wind-type integrated satellites.Some of these ships belong to NATO, and some belong to SCO.In order to regain its own space industry, NATO has invested heavily in this area.But this matter should not be rushed. At present, the most reliable L3 is the abstract guy "Picasso".

The French Anna Space Technology Company is a space technology company re-established by the French on the basis of the original Matera Company after the split of NATO by merging a part of the shares of the former American Laura Space Company.It includes a series of technologies related to space and astronautics, such as spaceships, satellite manufacturing, and space communication equipment.It is also the best company that NATO's European forces can offer.Moreover, this company also has cross-shareholdings with the American Hughes Corporation. From a management point of view, it does not seem to be particularly good.

The person who received Zhang Mai was a white man with a bad nose.In this day and age, it is really rare to be able to grow fungus on one's nose in space, and Zhang Mai doesn't know where to complain.From the point of view that this guy has an automatic translator and doesn't need to use the translator as a repeater, and at the same time speaks French with a strong accent, he is a guy who occupies the latrine and doesn't shit.It is estimated that it is a ramming product to mix bonuses and salaries.Zhang Mai secretly made up his mind to stop talking to this guy in the future.

After the lengthy conversation was finally over, a brown-haired man was called in, also a big boy in appearance.He introduced himself as Alan Reynolds, and he was in charge of taking Zhang Mai to visit the place where he was going to work.

On the way to the work area, Zhang Mai chatted with this man named A Lun.The boy is very talkative, fluent in English, and can even speak some stumbling Chinese.From what he said, he was a native Frenchman.Like Zhang Mai, he majors in space automation.And coincidentally, Zhang Mai and him are in the same dormitory.

"Blé?" Aaron Leno uttered a phrase in French as he told the guy his name.Zhang Mai was taken aback, and the simultaneous translator immediately gave him Il's standard answer: wheat in French.

Zhang Mai had to look at this guy with admiration, and he associated the word "maizi" with the word "maizi" in Chinese.This guy is estimated to have a high language talent.However, it seems that the nickname Maizi is going to be with him for the rest of his life.

"That, Alan, the one who received me..." Zhang Mai still couldn't help asking this question.

"Ah? Are you talking about Director Eliezer? Although the director looks a little strange, but in terms of personality, he is very good." As he spoke, Allen lowered his voice, "He is actually a Belgian, from The French-speaking part of Belgium. It’s a relative of a certain director. The purpose of coming here is to get some salary. Don’t worry, this director is very self-aware. Apart from shouting some slogans to the employees in those Belgian versions of French, he has nothing to do. Never mind."

So it seems that this salary thief is a smart man.Probably live to be a hundred years old.Zhang Mai smiled.

"In a sense, Maizi was very nice when you came here." Aaron is a familiar character, and he has already greeted him by nickname after a while.

"Picasso has just ushered in an expansion recently, and we are severely understaffed here. I guess you will be very busy soon. And there are no entertainment facilities in this place, I don't know if you will find it boring..." He said , Allen came up mysteriously.

"Actually, we have some 'alphs' here. You only need to pay some euros or US dollars, and RMB is also fine. But don't pay your 'du', there is no way to exchange it here."

Elf, Zhang Mai frowned.If people say this word mysteriously, it means that these Assyrians are basically engaged in a very old profession-prostitution.After years of education, Zhang Mai has some sympathy for these Assyrians.However, although he sympathized with them, Zhang Mai, who had no specific concept of what happened to the Assyrians, had no other feelings.

After all, it doesn't have much to do with me, does it?
　The big framework of space forces has come out.I don't really want to write dry canon sets and put them up
