They didn’t just stand at the door. Kelvin took the two to the B3 floor, where the Special Projects Institute was located, and led them to the office at the end of the hall.
It was a huge scientific research center and a semi-enclosed housing facility. In addition to scientific research facilities, there were also living and entertainnt facilities.
Almost all researchers involved in S-class confidential scientific research projects had reported to here before. The more than two hundred researchers that returned from the Mars colony were temporarily placed here at this mont. Except for Amos and other special researchers with S-class authority, most people would have to spend several years here before they could return to society.
Of course, Celestial Trade was also generous with the compensation for these devotees.
Not only was the direct bonus for each person over 10 million Xin New dollars, but everyone was also permitted to inject ten years of DNA telore extension agents as compensation for their contributions. These terms were written in the confidentiality agreent and were completely voluntary.
“...I know you are more concerned about how many weapons we can dig from the graves of the Gaia civilization, but what I want to say next may disappoint you. In the two aspects of space technology and military technology, the Gaia civilization had no significant achievent. They completed the unity very early through the unique thod within their species and maintained peace and stability for thousands of years. And according to my research... and in the later stages of the civilization, they may have realized the so-called utopia,” Dr. Amos said.
Not all civilizations are keen on researching tools for killing the sa kind.
Using the standards of human civilization to analogize extraterrestrial civilizations, thinking that the “civilization theory” based on human history, culture, and behavior habits are universal, and it is itself an ignorant and arrogant behavior.
Although Jiang Chen had considered this possibility a long ti ago, after he heard Dr. Amos’s words in person, he couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed. However, before he had ti to be disappointed, Amos’s next sentence made him see the light again.
“But that being said, based on the theoretical knowledge left by the Gaia civilization, it is not impossible to develop weapons capable of fighting colonial ships of which are beyond our tis,” Dr. Amos continued after a pause. “As you know, science and technology are two different things. The forr determines the developnt potential of the latter, while we mainly inherit the forr.”
“Can you finish talking in one go?” Jiang Chen complained.
Amos smiled and chose not to respond to that question. However, he continued on this topic, “In addition, I found that the Gaia civilization has a deep understanding of the Klein particles. Their understanding between the three-dinsional world and the four-dinsional world has completely subverted my understanding of this kind of particle that only exists in concepts.”
“Oh?”
Jiang Chen looked at Amos unexpectedly, only to see the latter nod before he continued.
“In their research on Klein particles, I found a very interesting phenonon. It is about the short-lived form of Klein particles when they collapse from four dinsions to three dinsions and the form of energy conversion across the three-dinsional coordinate system. ”
Kelvin, who stood next to Amos, was confused. With a frown, he asked, “What do you an? Can you make it clearer?”
Since his profession did not match this topic, it was difficult to conversate.
Kelvin ca from building spacecraft, therefore he didn’t understand a word Amos said.
However, Dr. Amos didn’t say anything more. He just looked at the clock on the wall and said.
“It has to do with our ti.”
...
On January 29th, Trump officially took office.
On the podium, Trump, in a suit, excitedly delivered his impassioned inauguration speech to his supporters below the stage and the dia.
“Thank you the people of our country, the people of the world, thank you.”
“On this great day today, we have transferred power from Capital to the hands of the people, that is, yours.”
“For a long ti, the fruits of our labor have been taken by a small group of people, and the cost has to be borne by all of our citizens. Capital is thriving, Wall Street is making a lot of money, and our people have not shared the wealth. They use the interests of one group of people to buy the votes from another group, flaunting the so-called political correctness to change their image. And this is why our welfare is getting higher and higher, but life is getting worse and worse, and there is fewer and fewer job opportunities. The economy is deteriorating, and countless factories are closing...”
“It’s ti to change everything. Get those lazy refugees out of our country, send criminals who crossed the border illegally to where they belong, and say no to the barbaric third world gangsters.”
“...Thank you again, thank you for choosing , and I will lead this country back to greatness, thank you!”
After the transfer of power was completed, Trump nominated the cabinet mbers of the new governnt within a week and ford his own leadership team. Including the forr Secretary of State Kerry, the current Secretary of Defense Carter, all officials had gone through a major change in this power shift.
Oil tycoon Rex Tillerson was appointed as the new Secretary of State; Jas Mattis, a war hawk among the war hawks and a retired Marine Corps Four-Star General, was appointed as the new Secretary of Defense; Steve Bannon, who served as the soul of Trump campaign team, transford from a far-right dia executive chairman to the Chief Strategist and Senior Adviser of the President...
From the perspective of the composition of the cabinet, apart from a few positions reserved for the supporters of the Republican Party, Trump used the Secretary of State to repair the tense relationship with Wall Street while at the sa ti, added a war hawk into his team.
Finally, as promised earlier, he made Xin the first stop of his diplomatic visits and revealed to the dia that the “Colombia”, “UA military in Nippon”, “space resource developnt”, and the most sensitive issue of “alliance mbership” would be discussed in the upcoming eting.
While surprised by the efficiency of the new UA President, the outside world shared a pessimistic view about his ability to solve problems.
However, there were still so voices that had a sliver of hope.
What if the dream did co true?
What if the Earth Defense Alliance returned to the UN frawork?
What if...
There were no what-ifs.
Just three days before Trump’s visit to Xin, Celestial and the UA increased their troops in South and North Colombia by 100,000 respectively, and added a bundle of dry firewood to the burning stove in Colombia.
Before it started, a layer of gloom had already shadowed this eting.
And, compared to a negotiation, it was more like a final showdown.
