"Skynet 1 satellite begins to break away." On the No. 1 launch vehicle, the first Skynet quantum network satellite broke away from the top of the rocket and entered its own orbit.
"The separation was successful, the satellite thrusters have been activated, and the orbit is being adjusted."
"Skynet 2 satellite is preparing to break away..."
In low-Earth orbit, Skynet satellites are getting ready one by one.
On the ground, signal receiving base stations have been deployed. The electromagnetic wave signals emitted from the quantum cascade laser are transmitted to the receivers of the ground base stations, and the quantum communication network gradually unfolds.
This process is ongoing, and the command center and the audience are waiting patiently.
Another two hours passed, and by this time at the University of Oulu, Baker had finished introducing their "terahertz communication technology."
He did not rest for a minute, and then participated in a personal interview program. This program was also tailor-made for him and was broadcast simultaneously on several major media platforms in the world.
…
"Skynet 16 satellite has entered the predetermined orbit. The third-stage engine of the No. 1 launch vehicle has been extinguished and is re-entering the atmosphere. Please pay attention to the ground team." In the command center, as the first launch vehicle completed its mission, everyone became more and more excited. Get nervous, the dawn of victory is right in front of you.
"The recovery team is ready and has locked the third-stage rocket body."
"The third-stage rocket body engine is igniting for the second time and is decelerating..." On the satellite image of the command center, you can clearly see the landing third-stage rocket body.
This image is exceptionally clear, and it was made from space remote sensing mapping by the just-launched Skynet Quantum Network satellite!
"The deceleration process is intact. As long as 20% of the rocket body can be recovered, it will be considered a success!" Hou Jinxiu said. Launch rockets are expensive to build, so they try to test more advanced plans every time they launch.
This time, the three launch vehicles are equipped with different rocket recovery solutions to make the best use of everything.
"Skynet 32 satellite has entered the predetermined orbit; the third stage of the No. 2 carrier rocket has begun to land."
"Skynet 48 satellite has entered the predetermined orbit; the third stage of the No. 3 carrier rocket has begun to land."
"The recycling group has been located."
In the command center, the team responsible for satellite orbit control reported loudly: "Reporting to the commander-in-chief, all 48 Skynet quantum network satellites have entered orbit and are waiting for network formation orders!"
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on He Xingzhou.
The final moment has finally arrived.
The audience, who had been waiting for nearly five hours, also became excited: "I have been watching for five hours, and the network is finally going to be established!"
"Let's get started!"
"I'll go, I want to go to the toilet at the critical moment!"
"@小leapingfrog, @青豆, stop playing games and come and see, we are setting up a network!"
He Xingzhou issued an order: "Activate all Skynet satellites and start the quantum information network!"
"Instruction received, Skynet Satellite No. 1 has initiated network connection;"
"Skynet Satellite No. 2 has been connected to the communication network;"
Skynet satellites connected to the quantum communication network one after another, until Electronic News reported: "Quantum communication satellite No. 48 has been connected to the quantum information network and is testing network performance."
"Data transfer rate, 10TB/S."
This transmission efficiency has reached nearly a thousand times that of the 5G network! And as the quantum satellite network continues to improve, it can continue to improve!
"Network bandwidth testing..."
"Network latency test in progress..."
"Network stability testing..."
"Network security testing..."
All indicators of the quantum information network are being tested. The whole process actually only lasted less than thirty seconds, but everyone felt as if an hour had passed.
The sound that appeared this time was not an ordinary synthetic electronic sound, but Lumi's sweet voice with a hint of pride. She said: "The quantum information network test has been completed, and all network indicators have been synthesized. The current transmission efficiency is 10TB/S , which is a thousand times faster than the 5G network and ten times faster than the theoretical speed of the terahertz communication network."
"The network was successfully established!" After Lu Mi announced, Hou Jinxiu was the first to stand up and shouted.
He was so excited that he even hugged the male colleague next to him. Project Xuanwu executives stipulated that the network must be built within two years.
This huge pressure caused him to lose a lot of hair during this period. Unexpectedly, it was completed a full year earlier than originally planned!
"We have successfully set up the network!" The entire command center cheered. Everyone had been working hard for nearly two years.
The plan for the quantum information network started two years ago. When He Xingzhou joined the project team, he accelerated the plan.
When they knew that the network was successfully established, they instantly felt that more than two years of bitterness, hardship, blood and tears were all worth it!
The suppressed emotions all burst out in the command center, in the launch tower, in the maintenance center, in the construction base, and in the viewing platform!
He Xingzhou also stood up and celebrated with everyone.
"From today on, China will have a quantum communication network covering the entire world!"
"Completely surpasses any terahertz communication technology!"
"We did it! We really did it!"
"Did everyone hear that?" Shen Bingbing's little face turned red with joy. When she reported, she couldn't hide her smile: "Just now, we received news from the ground command center. The quantum information network has been established. success!"
"We will have the technology for ultra-high-efficiency network communication around the world. With the leap forward in communication technology, a new era is coming!"
In front of the TV and on the Internet, the audience congratulated in unison: "On behalf of Dongzhou Normal University, I send a congratulatory message!"
"The network is successfully established, let's celebrate with flowers!"
"You are great, He Xingzhou, and all the hard-working staff!"
"Hahaha, great. I am a sailor and I don't want to use the satellite network at sea. This global network should be much cheaper, right?"
"After waiting for five hours, it was worth it to see this scene!"
"Stop talking, I was in the toilet waiting for this news, my legs were numb from squatting, and now I feel like I have lost all feeling in my legs!"
"Haha, I wonder what Dr. Shell will think when he hears the news?"
"Brothers, go to the external network, what terahertz communication technology are they still celebrating now!"
"They are still developing sixth-generation communication technology. We have successfully established a global quantum network. Why don't we show off?"
Some Chinese netizens abroad directly forwarded the news and posted it on various international websites and social media.
The spokespersons of the Space Administration and the Academy of Sciences also released this news respectively, and the National News International News Network announced it simultaneously!
At this time, Baker's personal interview was coming to an end.
In the several-hour interview just now, he boasted, and with the host's praise, he seemed to have become a leader in the world's science and technology community.
Foreign viewers are watching the interview, and they have already entered the rhythm of admiring Baker. Some people started to refresh the screen, "China's global quantum network has just been successfully established. It is more powerful than terahertz communication technology!"
"Are you still here listening to his bragging? Terahertz communication technology has been eliminated!"
"??? What's going on?" These foreign netizens haven't reacted yet. Wasn't terahertz communication technology just released? Why was it eliminated?
Soon, enthusiastic "netizens" sent them news.
When seeing the news, these foreign audiences were dumbfounded: "Global quantum communication network? The transmission speed exceeds 10TB/S, which is a leading terahertz communication technology. Has the network been completed?"
"How could this be? Didn't Dr. Baker say that terahertz communication technology is the world's leading technology? And it has just made a breakthrough, and it has already been eliminated!"
"This is fake news, fake news! You have all been deceived!"
Someone else became angry: "I've been watching for a long time, and it turns out that Baker's technology is decades behind others, and he's still bragging about it? This is completely a scam by capitalists!"
"Yes, He Xingzhou's technology is ahead of them again. This is a shame!"
Someone else spoke directly: "Baker still has the nerve to challenge He Xingzhou? He has been embarrassed all over the world!"
Foreign netizens started arguing, and various news websites and social media became confused.
"I plan to further develop the baseband technology for terahertz communication in the next issue..." Baker was about to finish with a "future outlook" when the host said: "Thank you very much for accepting the interview. Today's interview ends here! "
"Stuck!" The camera in the studio was turned off. Baker looked confused and asked, "What's wrong? Why did it stop suddenly? I still have ten minutes to finish my speech!"
The host said awkwardly: "We have received news that broadcasting this now may have a bad impact on you, so we can only stop it!"
"What's the point?" Baker was about to say a few words. His assistant came over and whispered a few words, which made Baker's face change greatly: "Are you telling the truth?"
"Yes, they have successfully set up a network. They have also opened up the satellite network experience, and our intelligence personnel participated in the experience, which proves this." The assistant said.
"How could it be possible? How could it be possible?" Baker never expected that He Xingzhou's team would actually successfully set up a network!
"This is a more powerful technology than the sixth generation communication technology. Why did they just skip terahertz communication technology?"
"How can the network be successfully established?" Baker realized that he and the Global Communications Technology Alliance seemed to have become a joke.
They had just been promoting terahertz communication technology here, and it was almost going to the sky. Suddenly, news came out from China, saying that they had eliminated terahertz communication technology.
It's like a child showing off that he just memorized the multiplication table, but his classmate has already completed a set of advanced math papers and got full marks!
The gap makes them feel ashamed.
At this time, Baker received another call from Nelson, the president of the alliance. His tone was very angry and he said: "Damn it, now we are all screwed!"
"Beck, you need to stop accepting all interviews and outings now, and keep a low profile for a while. I have arranged for the media to withdraw the article! This matter cannot be publicized. If it is publicized, it will embarrass us!"
At the end, he cursed: "This He Xingzhou is really a bastard. He insists on launching a satellite on Christmas, and he won't let anyone celebrate Christmas!"
He knew that, let alone Christmas, he would not have an easy time in the next few years!
"Damn it!" Baker gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do!
How much they paid for this campaign, but now it has become a joke! This will be a lifelong shame that will never be erased!
In the Western League, some people jumped because of this.
John scolded directly: "Just because we listened to your suggestions and replaced 5G equipment, we dismantled two billion US dollars of equipment. Now that they have a global network and the communication technology is more advanced, our equipment was dismantled for nothing!"
Hans, Gaul, Rome, etc. pretended not to hear. Although they also suffered losses, they were not as high as John. Who told John Telecom to be the first to respond to the call of the Global Communications Technology Alliance?
Someone else comforted: "It needs to be replaced anyway, so just tear it down. Maple Leaf and Kangaroo will suffer more losses."
John was still unhappy and said: "I think we need to reconsider the so-called terahertz communication technology. Terahertz communication technology has been eliminated by China, and we cannot spend a lot of money on the eliminated technology!"
"Yes, we need to discuss this matter with White Eagle again!" Hans, John, Roman and others all agreed.
"This time, we have suffered a lot of losses, and we have to ask Baiying to reimburse us! Otherwise, we will launch the Communications Technology Alliance!"
When it comes to their own vital interests, they will not be completely consistent with Bai Ying.
When Commander Bai Ying heard the news, he was so angry that he vomited blood!
"Not even we, White Eagle, have the quantum information network, they have it first!"
"The plan was completely disrupted!"
The subordinate comforted him: "Commander, at least we have achieved one of our goals. Everyone is focusing on other things. For example, Baker, He Xingzhou, and communication technology."
"Shut up!" the leader yelled. They intended to be praised as scientists by Baker, not as clowns, because what Baker represented was the science and technology they were proud of!
…
In the international media, relevant news about terahertz communication technology has been withdrawn, and news about China’s global quantum information network has also been withdrawn.
The stocks of Qualcomm, Intel, Samsung and other companies that were rising just now suddenly fell again, like a roller coaster.
This Christmas, many people are destined not to have a good time! This Christmas gift from He Xingzhou made them furious!
The Beacon Project failed for the first time! The radiant Dr. Baker temporarily disappeared from people's sight.
…
Three days later, in China, in the rocket technology group meeting room at the Suzhou Satellite Launch Center.
He Xingzhou is explaining the next phase of tasks to the project team.
He said: "The next stage is to launch communication technologies for networking in lunar orbit and Mars orbit to prepare for our future space exploration, moon landings and Mars landings."
"Rocket technology continues to be experimentally improved, waiting for further missions of the Xuanwu Project!"
"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!" Hou Jinxiu and others saluted.
He Xingzhou returned the gift. He wanted to explain a few more words, and his special mobile phone prompted that there was news.
This is equipment specially equipped for him by the security department. Every part is specially made. Only executors of the Xuanwu Project Level 2 or above can make this call.
"Let's adjourn the meeting," He Xingzhou said.
Upon seeing this, everyone knew that he had something secret to communicate and left the conference room one after another.
He Xingzhou stayed alone and answered the phone.
He Hongwei's voice came from over there, and he said: "Professor He, we finally made progress regarding the mutated organisms migrating in the ocean!"
