But now, Richard, viewing this from a higher perspective, feels an imnse joy within.
Indeed, from a higher viewpoint, this isn’t just a victory for Huaxia, but a trendous victory for all the people of the world. Everyone across the globe will benefit from this Moon landing.
When Huaxia brings back more resources from the Moon, or even directly develops it, it will create more living space, benefiting every ordinary person around the world.
That’s the resources of an entire planet!
Imagine if in the future the Moon truly becos a second ho for people, how many jobs could be created once many factories are built on the Moon?
And how much space could be freed up on Earth? It is said that space farming technology will also beco popular on Earth, and once the farming and breeding techniques developed under the harsh conditions of the Moon are applied, even deserts could be turned into farms.
That’s not his words, but the analysis of experts.
After all, even the most inhospitable regions on Earth are far superior in environnt to the Moon.
This ans that humanity will have more arable land, allowing everyone to have a full al.
Yes, Richard finally understands that for many people in this world, being able to eat their fill is a life they can only dream about.
Since he applied to join the Huaxia organization, they had him watch many docuntaries about life in the world’s underdeveloped areas.
There were many things he had never considered before. Many people’s lives there were even worse than those of the holess he used to see drifting around the city center.
At least those holess people always had soone thinking of them. Expiring food in supermarkets, the charitable church canteens, and many volunteers delivering food...
Even going to fast-food restaurants, taking leftover pizzas or hamburgers, wouldn’t lead to starvation.
But in those places, even if people worked non-stop all day, it was difficult to get enough food. When everyone is struggling, no one is inclined to give food out of charity.
The most frightening thing is that in many regions, this situation is caused by their military forces. Especially in many places where resources are actually very abundant, if the citizens could enjoy the benefits of these resources, they could live without worries regarding food and clothing.
But their resources are all taken away! This once made Richard feel extrely ashad, but then the Huaxia person hosting their viewing of the videos posed a question, which changed his sha into anger.
The question was actually very simple...
"Since West University’s army has plundered so many resources, why are there still so many holess in West University? And why are ordinary people still living in such poverty?"
This question truly struck Richard.
Because he rembers what life was like at ho. Even though he clearly had a skill, he couldn’t find suitable work and had to do part-ti jobs for twelve hours a day, yet he couldn’t support his family of three.
In the end, having more children and receiving state subsidies was their only way to live!
The key was that those subsidies were just enough to eat, not even to eat well every day, let alone having any quality of life.
Before the Huaxia people ca, their family had to manage their credit cards carefully, let alone think of vacationing...
The affluent lives seen on TV and movies seed completely unrelated to life on this land.
And it wasn’t just their family; the neighbors were the sa, living in extre poverty!
What’s more terrifying, despite robbing so many resources, they still owed hundreds of billions in debt!
So where the hell did all those looted resources go? No matter how he thought about it, it made no sense.
It was well-known that robberies are one of the fastest ways to make money in this world, yet after looting so much, why still live on debt?
But Huaxia is different.
According to the docuntaries, Huaxia also assists the poor, but not by helping able-bodied holess people. Instead, they aid families truly in difficulty who have lost the ability to work.
It can even be said that families in extre poverty in Huaxia truly don’t need to worry about anything, because there’s genuinely soone to help them, with each household having a specific executor assisting.
A Huaxia capable of achieving this has never initiated a foreign war nor plundered other people’s assets.
All they do is strive to develop agriculture and industry, then use the labor value of the masses to trade with the world, earning ager profits to develop the nation further.
The disparity between the two countries is so great! So great that Richard doesn’t know how to judge!
So he has now learned to view issues from a higher perspective.
His motherland, West University, is clearly corrupted to the core. But no matter how great the achievents are, they have nothing to do with ordinary people.
But Huaxia is different. Any achievent they make in the future could benefit ordinary people worldwide and not just the vested interests.
Coincidentally, his family, most importantly, his children, are ordinary people too.
So he has every reason to view this Moon landing from a higher vantage point!
The only regret is that the live broadcast of this Moon landing is at eight in the morning on a weekday. He certainly doesn’t have the ti to watch it.
But his children’s school will surely organize everyone to watch it, and according to Huaxia’s official statent, this live broadcast isn’t just a one-off event.
After the successful landing, the eight astronauts who set foot on the Moon will broadcast roughly twenty hours a day, showcasing to the world how they build the Moon Base, so there’s no worry about having nothing to watch.
As usual, he first sent his eldest son to middle school early in the morning and then took his two younger sons to a nearby elentary school before arriving at a construction site in the city center.
This is where he’s been working lately.
In construction, you always move with the site, especially since he is now a qualified welder.
The Huaxia people in this field emphasize efficiency, always having him move to another place needing welders as soon as the work in one place is finished.
Currently, the whole of Philadelphia is like a big construction site, and the ti spent on each site is usually only about a month or so.
The good thing is that the sites are all near the city center, so no matter where they move, it isn’t far, nor is it very tough.
Upon arrival, as he was about to change into work clothes, his foreman approached him.
"Hey, Richard, don’t rush to change clothes yet, head to the conference room. Today we’re organizing a viewing of the Moon landing activity, you can start work afterward."
Richard’s foreman speaks fluent English.
Not every Huaxia person working on the site can speak English fluently; so who can’t speak English even hold managent positions.
But this doesn’t hinder communication.
All that is needed is a pair of AI translation glasses and a simultaneous translation headset during etings.
When the other side speaks in Chinese, the headset can translate it into English in real-ti.
And what he says to them can also be translated in sync. The anings are almost always accurately conveyed. Now that this technology is very mature, there’s rarely a situation of mismatched communication.
Of course, for Richard, he quite likes having a foreman who can speak English. Communication feels more intimate without relying on technology.
"Ah? Didn’t they say we’re rushing to et the deadline recently? Isn’t there another building project for the company in Fairmont?"
"Haha, a deadline is a deadline, but this Moon landing is of great importance to the world. As they say in Huaxia, ’Sharpening the axe doesn’t delay the work of chopping wood’! Don’t worry, as before, activities organized by the company will count as work hours!"
The foreman explained with a smile.
Richard nodded enthusiastically. He was just as curious to see how the Moon landing would go.
"By the way, I heard from the manager in the morning that the head office has a collaboration with the space program. They will select so people from each branch to participate in the Moon seven-day tour event.
If selected, the company will fully cover the expenses to Huaxia and the Moon, including a month of training costs. Didn’t you always want to see Huaxia with your own eyes? You can try signing up. It’s said you can even bring your family along!"
