Countless people at home and abroad, as well as the outside media, are staring at him. It is impossible for Xia Jiangyu to not be under pressure, although he can completely ignore it.

But obviously, in the final analysis, the invisible pressure brought by the outside world cannot be ignored.Just when NASA completed the Noah core module and the "Orion" spacecraft successfully sent to space and completed space rendezvous and docking.

A week later, Huaxia Future and the National Aviation Administration SA finally made the headlines under the convergence of global vision.

Located at the Wenchang Satellite Launch Base in the South China Sea, the first core module of the "Tiangong Circular Orbit Starport" will be launched at night. The rocket booster is the latest "Long March Series" carrier rocket independently developed by the Republic.

It is also the largest thrust booster of the country's launch vehicle so far, capable of carrying a maximum of 155 tons of materials or space stations into the earth's low-Earth orbit berth.

Although the carrying capacity of the sls rocket of the United States is slightly inferior, considering that this country started decades late in the field of space exploration, being able to achieve such an achievement is enough to attract the attention of the world.

After the specific launch date was announced, countless people or tourists came to the outskirts of the Wenchang launch base, and the tourists also conducted an outdoor live broadcast.

These behaviors are all permitted, and everyone who comes to the scene must observe this highly anticipated launch feast with their own eyes, except for the public and tourists.

Also, journalists from major media outlets around the world will arrive at the scene for live reports.And as launch day approaches.

Another piece of news immediately caught the attention of the global vision.

On the day when NASA launched the "Orion" spacecraft, Xia Jiangyu flew to Moscow, the capital of Russia, on a special plane owned by Future Technology to discuss cooperation with Roscosmos.

Then Xia Jiangyu, on behalf of Huaxia Future, reached a huge deal of up to 29 billion U.S. dollars with Sontsev, the general manager of the Russian State Space Affairs Group and the "Energy" Rocket and Space Group.

The second largest core module of the "Tiangong Circular Orbit Starport" under Huaxia Future will be sent to outer space by the "Angara a5g" super-heavy rocket booster under the "Energy" rocket and aerospace group.

The second largest core module of the "Tiangong Circum-orbit Starport" weighs 178 tons. Currently, only the Russians can handle the transportation capacity of this tonnage.

Chapter 160 Eighth Poor Crazy Old Maozi

Lao Maozi is the successor of the former Soviet Union and inherited the "inheritance" of the former Soviet Union in the 90s. You must know that the Soviet Union had a great advantage in the space hegemony of the United States and the Soviet Union in the last century.

A number of human firsts were accomplished by him. The "upright" Soviets seemed to have won on the surface, but they were "deviled" to death by the Americans in this way.

On the one hand, it is difficult to get rid of the poor, but on the other hand, it is a big investment in the military and space arms race. It is no wonder that it does not die.

The Soviet Union fell, but its technology has not been lost. It has been basically inherited by the Russians and has been developing steadily.

It's just that Lao Maozikong has a lot of technology, but lack of money is the eternal pain of "polar bears". The footsteps of the former Soviet Union have always warned polar bears.

Now it can only be in such an embarrassing situation, but Kongyou has a powerful technology, but in this fiery space race in the new century, he can only be reduced to the second echelon.

Watching other people have fun while watching others play, but I can only become a melon-eating crowd. It is certain that the Russians will not accept it, but they can also join the ranks if they refuse to accept it.

As long as you have money, but the collapse of the Soviet Union made the old man tremble extremely.

This time, when Xia Jiangyu went to Moscow, he was prepared for a hemorrhage. As expected, the old Maozi, who opened his mouth, finally sucked 29 billion US dollars from Huaxia Future.

Huaxia Future once wanted to give up the help it sought from Russia and complete the independent launch, but the huge volume of the second largest core module was there.

Domestic rocket boosters are currently limited in capacity. The "Arc Eagle" aerospace transport aircraft has a maximum capacity of 60 tons, although it leads the world in small and medium rocket boosters and the US space shuttle.

However, the targets are completely unequal. The scientists and engineers of Huaxia Future once suggested that the second largest core module should be divided into scattered parts to complete the operation and delivery through the "Arc Eagle Series" aerospace transport aircraft and arc-shaped launch towers.

But this plan was quickly overturned, because of lack of time, it was split up on earth and reassembled in space.

This will overturn many plans, not only will it take a lot of energy, but also the design of the entire core module will have to be redone.

The situation is stronger than others, and Huaxia can only bear it in the future, and it will be cheap for the old man once.In a few years, when my super operation and investment ability improves, this situation will not happen again.

The Russians also took a fancy to this point, knowing that there are not many opportunities, and they can cheat as much as they can, and they will have no chance in the future.

"I can see the faces of those old men clearly. I think they are poor and crazy!"

After returning to the future technology headquarters from Moscow, Xia Jiangyu found Li Linfei and complained non-stop, and scolded Solntsev, an old man, in front of Li Linfei.

The shipping fee of 29 billion U.S. dollars is almost 200 billion yuan in RMB. Thinking about it, my heart is bleeding.

At this moment, it was a moonlit night in local time, and the two were heading towards the dome of the building. A helicopter had been waiting for a long time.

From time to time, the two will be carried to the Wenchang satellite launch site, and in a few hours, the launch will begin.

Li Linfei listened to Xia Jiangyu's non-stop scolding the Russians, smiled lightly, and said: "This 'polar bear' was indeed driven crazy by the Westerners, and I know that such an opportunity may only come once. Our space technology has developed so far. quick."

"The carrying capacity is increasing by ten tons every year. In a few years, we don't need to seek outside help at all. We can earn as much as we can. If I change it, I will open my mouth like this. There is only one chance."

"Hehe~~!"

Xia Jiangyu suddenly smiled playfully, and said: "The nearly 200 billion (RMB) is not so easy to earn. The agreement and contract are there. If the old man gives me a "firework", he will give me my core cabin. If it’s gone, they’ll have to wear underwear for the winter.”

The elevator door on the dome of the building opened slowly, and the two walked towards the helicopter leisurely. Li Linfei smiled and looked sideways at Xia Jiangyu, and said, "Ha~~ Lao Maozi's skills are quite reliable and he has a lot of experience. "

Xia Jiangyu nodded noncommittally, and said: "Although that is the case, there is an American watching next door. Yankees are notoriously insidious, and they like to trip people up in secret."

"I'm afraid that the old man will be careless. If the Americans secretly smack the polar bear and give us all a century-level fireworks event worth tens of billions, it will be fun!"

Li Linfei nodded slightly and said: "It is possible. After all, if the old man really blows up my core module, the construction of the new core module will take at least 2 months, and the 'Gemini Project' will definitely be postponed for at least 5 months. Americans It can take a big step ahead of us, and it is worth taking a risk to see things with one stroke.”

He smiled again, and said, "However, I think the Russians are more concerned about this matter than we are. They can't afford the loss with their little rubles, so they are only allowed to succeed, not to fail."

"It makes sense!" Xia Jiangyu laughed.

The two came to the side of the helicopter, boarded the plane one after another, and then went straight to the Wenchang launch center.

On the helicopter, Li Linfei thought for a while and asked, "Where is the core cabin?"

Xia Jiangyu checked the information, and after a moment of silence, he replied: "We have already reached the north of the East China Sea, and we will arrive at the ice-free port soon. The Russians are ready, and the core module will be transported from the East-Biblia Railway to the launch site. According to the established Time to launch from the launch site north of Moscow."

"Speaking of which, this Yankee is also lucky enough to encounter the golden geographical distribution of the three major stars that is rare in a century, not only being able to complete the curve overtaking on the inner ring track."

"You can also use the gravity of Venus for free, and you can win a few months of precious time. It's a good thing to do multiple things in one fell swoop, tsk tsk tsk! It seems that the Yankees are also going well." Xia Jiangyu said.

Li Linfei didn't take it seriously, and said: "Half of the Noah's volume is carrying the fuel and supplies needed for the round trip. We only need a slightly larger purple stone to handle it."

"The space it occupies is only the size of a computer desk, but it can store a high amount of energy. Americans have to wait for Mars to get closer to launch missions due to fuel and load limitations."

"Us? We can do it at any time. The only difference is that the voyage time will be increased due to the distance, and it will cost more petajoules of energy. We spend so much energy and investment, isn't it just for the purple giant on the surface of Mars?" stone?"

"haha, yes!"

When the helicopter was rushing to the command center of the Wenchang rocket launch base, Li Linfei in the plane looked down through the window. Although it was already late at night, there were still a large number of people gathered in the outer area of ​​the launch site.

In any case, those who can come here late at night are patriots, and they want to see the true style of showing the strength of a great country.

Chapter 160 Launch

The Rockets are truly a major weapon of great power, and there are also some media reporters who want to obtain first-hand information on the scene.

This time the world's two super players are competing for space, which is not like the infernal affairs between the United States and the Soviet Union in space hegemony in the last century.
