Chapter 1278 Destiny

"The Expedition of Necessity."

"Well said!"

Looking at the screen shown on the TV, and the applause resounding from the screen, the old man sitting in the office couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.

Before the start of the summit, he was a little worried that Lu Zhou would not be able to stand the difficulties of those Western journalists and "environmental protection activists", but he did not expect that Academician Lu not only presented the achievements of Huaguo in the past five years in front of the world , and by the way, looked forward to the future, raising the moon landing project to the level of self-help of a community with a shared future for mankind.

Yes, the development of outer space is not only for the benefit of China, but also an obligation that human beings must fulfill in order to survive. As a responsible superpower, what Academician Lu said really touched the heart of the old man.

Standing in front of the desk, Director Li smiled and echoed.

"After all, it's Academician Lu, and he really speaks well. Every time I discuss a problem with him, I feel as if I have been enlightened. Things that I couldn't understand at first, I figured it out immediately."

Not only did I figure it out, maybe even the problem was solved along the way.

His favorite thing to do on weekdays is to visit Academician Lu's house.

Grasping the armrests of the chair with both hands, the old man stood up from the desk and walked to the blueprint hanging on the wall.

This blueprint was jointly designed by the Lunar Orbit Construction Committee and the Guanghan City Planning Committee. It depicts the city appearance of the Guanghan Special Zone after the population exceeds 10,000. Although it is just a conceptual drawing that looks like a movie poster, many of the above things have been realized technically, at least in the laboratory of Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.

As long as we continue to develop step by step according to the current pace, sooner or later this blueprint will become a reality, even more magnificent than it...

After staring at the blueprint for a long time, the old man suddenly said,

"Speaking of which, when will the first batch of pioneers leave?"

Director Li responded.

"It should be within a few days."

The old man nodded, and after thinking for a while, he continued.

"Although some time ago, our propaganda department has done a series of mobilization work, but I feel that there is still a lack of momentum."

"The words on the scene are in place, and the mid-to-long-term strategy has also been conveyed to our grassroots, but one important thing has been overlooked, that is, our spirit has not been conveyed to the world."

"The development of lunar resources by the Lunar Orbit Construction Committee is not only for China, but also for the whole world, and even the future of the entire community of shared future for mankind."

As he spoke, the old man looked at the secretary who was standing on the other side of the desk, who had not said a word from the beginning until now, and ordered with a serious expression.

"Tomorrow's newspaper will be titled the Expedition of Necessity, and add Academician Lu's speech."

The secretary nodded immediately and replied respectfully.

"yes!"

...

In the early morning of the next day, a piece of news titled "Expedition of Necessity" appeared on the headlines of "Renren Daily".

In the news, the author used Academician Lu’s speech at the Global Climate Action Summit in Copenhagen and answers to questions from environmentalists as an introduction, leading to thinking about the future destiny of mankind, and at the same time discussing the ultimate way out for ecological and environmental protection.

At the end, the article refined Academician Lu's speech, and put forward the conclusion that "human beings cannot curl up in the cradle all their lives, and the future is only when they get out of the cradle".

Although this sentence may sound a bit far-fetched, it is actually a very real problem.

Many species that dominate the planet and stand at the top of the food chain have been born on the earth. They may not have established a prosperous civilization like humans, but their existence is far beyond that of Homo sapiens with a history of only 250,000 years.

Now, most of them no longer exist.

Facts have proved that even if no industrialized civilization has been bred, it does not mean that the ecosystem and the individuals in the ecosystem can always live in harmony.

Overcoming nature and ultimately controlling nature is the real way out for human civilization.

This may not be the only solution to environmental problems, but it is the only solution that can see a better future from the perspective of materialism.

Of course, since this article appeared on "Renren Daily" instead of "Science", "Nature" or "One Hundred Thousand Whys", the real purpose is naturally not to discuss the issue of environmental protection itself.

But to convey a signal, or thought, to the outside world.

That is the development of lunar resources and the conquest of outer space. This is not only the expectation of the world, but also the responsibility entrusted to us by the times.

Or in other words...

It is destiny!

Once this article was published, it immediately caused frenzied forwarding on countless media platforms. It spread all over the Internet in less than a morning, maximizing the circle of friends of countless domestic netizens.

Although there are no impassioned statements in the whole article, nor a lot of rhetoric to wake up and exaggerate, but the simple words have infected the soul of every reader who reads this article, and aroused the resonance in the hearts of countless Chinese children .

Of course, people are more surprised by the amount of information revealed in this article than being infected by the feelings of family and country and manifest destiny revealed in the article.

The first batch of immigrants going to the Guanghan Special Economic Zone is about to leave?

Why didn't I even hear the news of the registration?

On the scarf, the voice of the discussion has swiped the screen at the bottom of Renren Daily's official Weibo.

"Fuck! Are you really planning to go?"

"I thought it was a joke made by the War Bureau? I didn't expect that the Guanghan City Special Zone plan was actually real!"

"Is it too late to go up and speculate in real estate?"

"There's some fucking house there for you to fire! It's just a pile of dirt, and most people can't even get in if they want to!"

"It is said that there are already more than one hundred people in the Guanghan Special Zone. The average degree of education per person is a doctorate, and the doctorate pilot with the highest score in the country is simply terrifying!"

Compared with pure emotion and wonder, the wide dissemination of this article has also aroused the thinking of countless people.

In particular, a certain highly praised answer on the Internet has expressed the aspirations of countless people——

"Hey, I really didn't expect that there would be such a day that we need to lead the world forward..."

It's not just that the respondent who wrote this line of text didn't think of it.

Almost everyone who pressed the like button for this line of answers did not expect that this day would come so suddenly.

So much so that the moment of realizing it, it seems like a world away.

Just five years ago, the throne of global hegemony still stood on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. Whether it is a developing country or a developed country, the imagination about the future can find the answer in a certain street or a certain university in North America.

But now five years have passed, and the center of gravity of the strategic balance has unconsciously shifted to the west coast of the Pacific Ocean.

From controllable fusion to the aerospace industry, the rise of Huaguo Zhizao has subtly changed the tilt of the balance and redefined the order of the new world.

How to go about the future road has thus become a new problem that everyone has to think about.

Is it like the old overlords, using the leverage of currency and guns to build hegemony to loot the wealth of the people of the world and enjoy the luxury of the next century, or to achieve the overall prosperity of the community of shared future for mankind.

Not just the people living on the land of China.

The whole world is waiting for the answer from the waking dragon.

And now.

This call-to-action called "The Expedition of Necessity" has obviously given the answer belonging to China to the question of this century...
