To launch a satellite, it must have a suitable orbit.
Thanks to Jiang Chen's previous high-energy electromagnetic pulse device, now in space, the satellites developed by Musk have been laid off and re-employed in the scrapyard.
In other words, there are now many pitfalls in space appearing out of thin air.
Many countries are keeping an eye on these pits. Everyone knows that if they occupy these pits, they can dominate space and have first-hand information about Blue Star around the world.
But, the satellite that Musk sent up turned into space junk inexplicably, and no one can figure it out.
The key point is that the locations where these satellites have problems happen to be near Dragon Kingdom and Baba Sheep.
The foreigners who couldn't figure out the reason could only attribute it to the special magnetic field of Longguo, and the quality of the satellite launched by Marx was not up to par, so it was destroyed.
The gringo thought so, but in his heart he also felt that the Dragon Kingdom was not easy to deal with.
But no matter how they guessed, they never thought that it was all related to a movie prop master.
Jiang Chen didn't know what kind of reaction foreign countries would have. In the past few days, he had been busy with preliminary experiments on quantum communication.
With the efforts of a group of scientific researchers, they successfully achieved a 30-kilometer free-space quantum entanglement and key distribution experiment half a month later.
It has been proved that when photons penetrate the atmosphere, the quantum state can be effectively maintained. This experimental result completely verifies the feasibility of satellite-to-ground quantum communication.
After the people in the science and technology team received Jiang Chen's report, they added an additional 10 billion for the later transformation of scientific and technological achievements without Jiang Chen mentioning it.
The country has confirmed it, so what are you waiting for?
Quantum communication satellite begins construction!
Leader Fang of the science and technology team was very considerate and sent Jiang Chen a list of names. Jiang Chen saw that they were all satellite-related professionals.
I understand, I understand, but why did Team Leader Fang send the list to himself?
He communicated with Team Leader Fang and found out that the other party asked him to choose someone.
"Academician Jiang, this is your team. You are responsible for choosing who to put in your team. We are responsible for communication."
Uh, so polite.
Jiang Chen felt that Team Leader Fang had given him enough face, so he handed the list to MOSS.
Anyway, MOSS will judge each person based on their abilities. Now the database that MOSS can access can check the information of these people. Letting MOSS check it is better than Jiang Chen looking at everyone's resume in front of the computer.
The processing speed of MOSS is extremely fast. 300 people came in, and 89 people were screened out in 10 minutes.
After selecting the people, Jiang Chen sent the list to Team Leader Fang and acted as the boss.
There are enough people this time so there is no need to do it yourself.
The newcomers are already leaders in their fields, but when they arrive at the base, they act like country bumpkins who just entered the city.
However, they used to be proud and did not receive any special treatment in the base. They were locked up as soon as they entered the second floor of the base.
Want to go to the first floor?
Sorry, the door frame robot is guarding the gate. Anyone who wants to go out will be stunned.
If you can't get out, you can only peacefully conduct research in the base.
What surprised the entire quantum communication team was that Jiang Chen not only understood quantum technology, but also understood satellite matters.
During the meeting that day, Jiang Chen asked MOSS to project the ultra-clear satellite model that had been prepared in advance directly into the middle of the dark conference room.
Jiang Chen gestured with his hands in the air to enlarge the satellite model he made.
"Currently, when we launch satellites, we mainly conduct four experiments."
"Star-to-ground high-speed quantum key distribution experiment, wide-area quantum communication network experiment, star-to-ground quantum entanglement distribution experiment, and ground-to-ground quantum teleportation experiment."
"This is the initial position of our satellite, but this is not certain. After all, there is no intervention from Musk's satellite, and the orbit is much cleaner."
"Our satellites can be placed wherever they want. Of course, this is only an ideal situation."
"If other countries, such as Yingjiang and Da Mao, get there before us, the track will be covered again."
Jiang Chen said, using his hands to reduce the size of the satellite he had just shown, and then several orbits appeared clearly on the entire screen, which were also covered with satellites marked with the Yingjiang and Da Mao logos.
With such an intuitive comparison, the enthusiasm of the researchers was instantly mobilized.
"While there are no other satellites in orbit, let's send it up first!"
"That's right! If you're too late, you'll be robbed! You must strike first!"
"It will be too late for us to go up when people occupy all the tracks!"
"Academician Jiang, please arrange the task quickly! We are unwilling to watch the track being taken away by others!"
"Finally, Musk's hot chicken satellite is no longer there. If there are more satellites from other countries, I will really go crazy!"
When Jiang Chen heard this, he smiled very calmly, as if he had anticipated their reactions.
"Don't worry, our satellite is actually a little different."
Jiang Chen zoomed in on the original satellite again, pointed at a protruding device on the satellite, and then clicked on the other person.
Then a dazzling, realistic white light shot out, and the satellite it hit turned into debris in the blink of an eye.
The people in the conference room were all shocked by the scene just now, as if they were watching a blockbuster movie.
"Of course we will not be lenient when our satellites encounter space junk."
"The high-energy electromagnetic pulse device developed before can be shrunk and placed on a satellite. In this way, no matter who comes to interfere with it, our satellite will not be a vegetarian."
It was as if he was frightened by the white light just now.
The researchers in the conference room were silent.
What did Academician Jiang just say? A high-energy electromagnetic pulse device developed?
No, that thing was also developed by Academician Jiang?
Damn it, if this thing is really installed on a satellite, who would dare to grab the orbit?
For a moment, the meeting room was boiling.
Who can afford a quantum communication satellite with built-in combat capabilities?
Jiang Chen was worried that this group of people would leak the secret when they got excited, so after asking everyone not to leak this plan, they started to divide the work.
The new people who joined the team were initially a little confused about the future.
But now, all the confusion has been swept away by the white light just now.
After they received the task, they couldn't wait to do it.
After Jiang Chen arranged the tasks, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, I got this troublesome matter out of the way.
However, he had not rested long before he received news from Yan Zhengqian.
"Academician Jiang, didn't you apply for the crew to film abroad before? Now the leaders have agreed. As for the crew, do you think you need me to accompany you to Director Guo to explain the situation?"
Jiang Chen became energetic after hearing Yan Zhengqian's words.
Did he actually allow the crew to go out? I have never been abroad in my entire life. Why not experience the sweet air of a foreign country this time?
Without further ado, Jiang Chen did not hesitate and immediately agreed to go find Guo Fan with Yan Zhengqian. However, before going to Guo Fan, Jiang Chen suddenly remembered something important.
