The sun appears from the other side of the earth, and its light shines on the silver-gray metal, which is dazzling, but also very dangerous.
"Class B-4 came back to rest, and the sun came up."
This is another peaceful moment on the "New Earth". This big iron ball that has not yet been completed is still rotating like the Earth. Although it still looks like an apple that has been chewed with a big bite, The construction workers responsible for the construction outside the new earth do not go to work according to Greenwich time (standard time on earth). Instead, they set their working hours according to the rotation speed of the new earth after the appearance of sunlight.
The outer shell of the new earth is very hard and has the function of absorbing solar energy. Unlike the earth, which is filtered by the atmosphere, the solar energy conversion rate in the universe is very high. In addition to supporting its own construction and operation, the solar energy collected by the New Earth can now provide power through cables to nearby colonial satellite groups that were born for the purpose of building the New Earth.
The colonial satellite of "A Paddle Merchant" on the periphery of the New Earth is particularly conspicuous. It is specially painted in gold and looks magnificent. Maybe mean people will think that this is the work of the nouveau riche, but everyone knows that the "merchant" is the Moore Chamber of Commerce. 's headquarters.
There is a wonderful room inside the "Shang". Usually people call the space enclosed by walls, windows and doors a room. But this room is different in that it is connected to the outside only by a door. When the door is not in use, it acts like a special display spread throughout the room, projecting the environment of the external universe into the room in real time through the camera. It makes you feel like you are in the universe, stepping on the stars and watching the earth and moon rotate. The experience will be particularly wonderful.
However, only very few people can enter this room because it is the office of the successive presidents of the Moore Chamber of Commerce. Even the rich and powerful, long-term partners of the Moore Chamber of Commerce, rarely get a glimpse of this room.
Fortunately, the corridor leading to this room is also designed in this style and is called the "Corridor of the Starry Sky." Employees of the Moore Chamber of Commerce often take selfies and group photos in the corridor, but the section near the chairman's office is still not allowed to pass. And those wealthy businessmen who couldn't enter the room also found someone to get one for themselves. But unlike the Moore Chamber of Commerce, most of the rooms they built were used for showing off.
"This way, Dr. Hohenheim."
A blonde woman in a suit leads Dr. Hohenheim through the "Corridor of the Stars." The first time he walked through this place, Dr. Hohenheim almost fainted due to visual discomfort. But now even some colonial satellites have built similar corridors to attract tourists, and he has long been used to it.
How many times has this been through the "Corridor of the Starry Sky"? Dr. Hohenheim asked himself this question as he watched himself walking on the earth (because the colonial satellite "Shang" is currently rotating at this angle). The answer is that there are only a few times. As the deputy director of the Humanoid Weapons Development Department of the Chamber of Commerce, the chairman usually only summons the director when something happens. In addition, Dr. Hohenheim had a gloomy temperament and was not sociable. He felt that he was not liked by those businessmen.
The blonde was Chairman Mohr's secretary, and she opened the door to the Chairman's office for Dr. Hohenheim. For a moment, Hohenheim felt as if he was truly in the universe, something that the narrow corridor could not match.
The chairman of the Moore Chamber of Commerce was waiting for him behind the desk in the center of the room. Without this desk, people would really think that he had entered the universe without wearing a spacesuit.
Chairman Thomas More stood with his back to the door, staring intently at the sun appearing behind the earth, as if he was traveling in the universe. He didn't react until he heard the secretary's reminder, turned around and called Dr. Hohenheim over.
"Doctor, come here."
Hohenheim felt unsteady stepping on the "cosmic floor", his movements were a bit like those tourists on the glass plank road in Zhangjiajie. Hohenheim himself didn't know why he was still unsteady after entering this room even though he had just passed through the "Starry Sky Corridor" with the same trick.
"Hahaha, you're not used to it. It was like this when I first came here. Without the Starry Sky Corridor, it would be even more dangerous to step directly into this room."
Chairman Thomas stood up and helped Hohenheim to the desk, and then sat down in his seat. He didn't say any pleasantries and asked immediately: "Dr. Hohenheim, I heard that the development work of Shijian No. 9 machine is almost completed?"
"Yes. The progress is currently 98%, and it will be ready to leave the factory soon."
"Um."
Chairman Thomas touched his fat belly, took out a cigar from his suit pocket and started smoking.
"Do you smoke it? Cuban," he asked Hohenheim.
"No... I don't smoke, but I am addicted to coffee... With the current environment of the earth, can I still smoke the cigars produced?"
Chairman Thomas smiled: "Red wine produced on earth is still a hot commodity now. Even if the environment is polluted, humans are still attached to Mother Earth."
Dr. Hohenheim coughed and asked, "Ten Sword Unit 9, where are you sending it?"
"Why do you ask?"
"The No. 2 machine originally given to HER was stolen. I thought you would compensate them with another one."
Seeing that the chairman did not answer, Dr. Hohenheim said seriously: "If you really want to give it away, give Unit 8 to HER! Anyway, Unit 8's function is the most useless right now."
Chairman Thomas shook his head: "Don't worry, I will send Unit 9 to Mars."
"That's the area controlled by HER!" Dr. Hohenheim couldn't help but slap his hands on the table, which was a very rude move.
Chairman Thomas glanced at him: "It's different, you don't understand. Dr. Hohenheim, after Unit 9 is completed, you can go on vacation on Earth."
"You want to fire me?! The development of Unit 10 still needs me!"
"No, no, don't be nervous. You are still my important subordinate. I will come back to you after the vacation. However, you have to let go of the development of Unit 10 and the development of the two subsequent sets of equipment for Unit 2."
"I understand..." Dr. Hohenheim pushed up his glasses and turned to leave, but suddenly stopped and turned to Thomas: "Mr. Chairman, can I ask you a question?"
"Can."
"Why do all the pilots of the Ten Swords choose people who are no more than 20 years old?"
Thomas put down his cigar and looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Don't you think this is cruel? There are young people in their 20s everywhere on the battlefield working hard, and you want to pick the worst among them."
Thomas shook his head: "I don't think that the age requirement for recruitment by many forces is over 18 years old. No one thinks there is anything wrong with this."
"...Then why is there a special age limit? Many excellent drivers are over 20 years old."
"I have my own considerations. You can go back."
Chairman Thomas waved away Dr. Hohenheim.
…
"Have you heard about it?"
"I heard that Thomas is going to send Unit 9 to Mars."
"We will never let this happen."
"Please."
Dr. Hohenheim hid in the toilet and used a modified mobile phone to communicate with someone.
"Then I'll give up. It's your heart."
"Wait a minute, I...I asked about that."
"What? You asked Thomas directly? Ah, I've told you several times, this kind of thing is irrelevant!"
"But I always find it strange that Thomas seems to have an ulterior motive..."
"Sigh... you're too tired. Maybe you really should take a good vacation. That's it, I'm done."
The communication was cut off. Dr. Hohenheim put down his cell phone and took out a report to read. It was the investigation report of the Moore Chamber of Commerce on Lin Ao.
