Zhang Xiaoman made an appointment with someone today.
His name is Richard Cromwell, a scientist from England.
To be precise, he is an expert with deep knowledge of planetary science.
Different from other projects, planetary science is a very large field that involves many subjects, including astronomy, geology, meteorology, atmospheric science, gravity, thermodynamics, aquamarine physics, aquamarine Chemistry, remote sensing, manufacturing, etc.
There are even architecture, materials science, computer science and agriculture, which is simply a super hodgepodge.
Everything you can imagine is covered in general planetary science.
Of course, it is impossible for current humans to master all of them. Generally speaking, they only specialize in a certain aspect of them.
And this Mr. Richard is a doctor specializing in astronomy and geology.
Speaking of which, Zhang Xiaoman met this big boss through Sun Mingsheng.
When Sun Mingsheng worked at an overseas research institute, he and the other party were colleagues in different departments of the same company. In addition, the two of them had the same hobby - eating hot pot - so they became familiar with each other and became a team. Very good friends.
Now, when he heard that Zhang Xiaoman wanted to find scientists who had made achievements in astronomy and geology, he first thought of his old friend.
According to Sun Mingsheng, this is because the top talents in the industry are the kind that all parties must grab to get their hands on them.
Of course, such a big boss is usually very busy. Even if a friend comes to visit, he may not be able to spare time.
However, Sun Mingsheng called the other party all the way from England to Qionghua Market with just a phone call.
The method he used was also very simple, that is, he revealed a little about the moon landing and space exploration.
This is the main purpose of Zhang Xiaoman's search for the other party.
However, it was useless to just talk, so he provided Richard with a video file, which recorded some of the pictures he took on the moon through Dawn.
Just like that, the boss immediately abandoned all the work at hand and took the trouble to fly from England to meet the boss who provided the video.
At this time, in Danlanxingkong Company, three people were sitting in conference room 1, talking to each other.
"Richard, I didn't expect you to come so early, but it's still a bit early before the agreed time. How about I take you around the company first?"
Sun Mingsheng, who was wearing a white research uniform, said.
Opposite him was an old white man in his sixties with half-white hair.
This person is none other than Richard Cromwell who came here to visit.
Richard had actually arrived at Qionghua Market yesterday afternoon, but due to the time difference, he was really sleepy at the time, so he went to sleep in the hotel first and didn't wake up until this morning.
This is not the first time he has come to China. He has been to this ancient and mysterious country once before when he was working on a scientific research project.
Since then, he has fallen in love with a unique cuisine here - hot pot.
However, this time, Richard had no intention of going out to enjoy his favorite cooking method.
Because in the company that his old friend Sun Mingsheng mentioned, there was a project waiting for him that made him sleepy.
In fact, when he first received the email, Richard had no interest at all in the so-called moon landing video.
In his opinion, this was nothing more than a unique joke played by his friend from China.
However, since it was an email from an old friend, he still had to take the time to read it.
The content of the email was an invitation letter, which roughly meant that he was invited to work in a company called "Danlan Starry Sky" in China.
Richard smiled helplessly and prepared to close the mailbox.
It seems that this old friend of mine is here to be his lobbyist this time.
He almost receives several emails like this a day.
As a result, just when he was about to close the mailbox, he suddenly saw the last sentence in the letter:
"Dear Richard, I know you don't care much about these invitations, but this company is really a magical company that you can't imagine. They even have their own space battleship, a real space battleship." A battleship can easily complete the moon landing. If you don’t believe it, just take a look at the attachment I sent you.”
Richard can still remember every word of that email.
He didn't know why he, who thought these were nonsense at the time, accidentally opened the attachment. Maybe this was the power of curiosity.
However, he was also very lucky that he made the right choice.
At first, when Richard clicked on the video, he still had a ridiculous mentality.
He does not believe that any private company can independently complete the manned moon landing project, and the so-called "real space battleship" is even more nonsense.
However, the moment he clicked on the video, the scene of outer space that appeared in his eyes made the disdain disappear on his face, and his whole person was involuntarily sluggish.
A few seconds later, Richard suddenly came to his senses. He thought that this must be a fake. It was a short film synthesized with high technology, just like those science fiction movies.
However, as the video progressed, the doubt on Richard's face gradually disappeared, replaced by an expression of surprise and uncertainty.
The video lasted for about ten minutes in total. The content was shot on the lunar surface. It was very clear. In some close-up shots, he could even see the dust on the ground.
After the video ended, Richard was deeply shocked. It took him a long time to come back to his senses, and he immediately called Sun Mingsheng.
For a scientist like him who has studied astronomy and geology for decades, he can tell the authenticity of the content on the video at a glance. At first, he had a preconceived attitude, and then he took a look.
Later, after carefully watching it several times, Richard was certain that most of these contents were true.
He even used his own astronomical telescope to observe and compare the location given in the other party's video. The result shocked and delighted the old scientist.
These things are indeed true and correct.
Judging from Richard's experience, unless the other party also has an expert with similar attainments as himself, and then he is still idle and willing to spend expensive costs, just to make a joke on himself.
This is obviously impossible, no one would be so free.
