#964 - Chapter 964: Can't Be Friends? Cherish what you have now! Global Online Conference, Expo
The dean's office.
Li Hongwei, the dean, was nowhere to be found.
How could he dare to intrude when the Commander was chatting with a friend?
"Com... Commander!" Song Yang was very reserved.
Although the two had met before, what was Chen Hao's status back then?
Chairman of Han Teng!
His status was certainly high, but compared to his current status, it was not even on the same level.
"Don't be so reserved between friends, right?" Chen Hao said with a smile.
"Frie... friends?"
Song Yang was stunned.
He didn't have the memories of his previous life, so he felt that being friends with Chen Hao was too outrageous.
"That's right!"
He suddenly remembered something, and immediately took out a bank card: "This... this is my scholarship money from the past few years, and the money I saved from work-study programs. I've already prepared it..."
He was already a postgraduate student.
Over the years, he had received a first-class scholarship every year, and had been working and studying since he entered university.
He had already saved enough money to repay Chen Hao's tuition fees.
It's just...
A long time ago, he asked his brother-in-law about repaying the money, but his brother-in-law said that Chairman Chen was very busy and shouldn't waste time on trivial matters.
Over the years, although Song Yang was thinking about repaying the money, he never had the opportunity to meet Chen Hao.
Chen Hao smiled: "The child won't have any problems, you should go back to school too."
"Yes..." Song Yang quickly got up.
They parted.
Chen Hao walked out of the hospital, looking up at the sky.
How many acquaintances did he have in his previous life?
Many, many!
As a dual academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering, he was also the chief designer of the J-40 and H-40 projects, and the person in charge of the fifth-generation nuclear technology—in different fields, he had many colleagues and subordinates. Did he have to get to know them all in this life?
Many things will change in this new life, just like meeting new friends.
Standing in Song Yang's position, being friends with him, Chen Hao...
The pressure is too great!
If making friends brings pressure instead, what's the point?
Why make each other feel awkward?
As long as the other person is doing well, he will be satisfied.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt enlightened: "Xiang Yan, take care of Song Ying's child."
"Chairman Chen, the child is fine, I..."
"I'll go back myself."
Chen Hao walked to the car, opened the door, sat in the driver's seat, and smiled at Xiang Yan: "Cherishing the people around you is more important than anything else."
What you already have.
Is what you should cherish the most!
The car started and left the hospital, returning to the military base.
He had a new idea.
It must be implemented in the shortest possible time!
However, the implementation of this plan still requires global collaboration and the consent of the heads of various countries.
...
The White House.
The assistant had just received a call and immediately reported to Cindy.
It wasn't just North America?
The major countries around the world had received calls from senior Chinese officials, saying that they wanted to hold an online meeting to discuss important matters together.
Cindy went online as soon as possible.
She was very active only because of her special status. Unexpectedly, as soon as she went online, many heads of state were online, each more active than the last.
Afraid of offending China, afraid of offending Chen Hao?
No!
Afraid of the Hunters!
Afraid of the destruction of Earth's civilization!
It can be said that the survival crisis brought about by the Hunters has made all countries in the world, for the first time, embrace each other in a rare way.
Chen Hao scheduled a formal meeting in two hours, thinking that the countries would need to prepare.
But...
Half an hour later, everyone was online.
"Mr. Chen, what exactly happened?" Cindy was the first to connect.
"Everyone."
In the video.
Chen Hao's expression was solemn: "Our Sky Survey Probe has just completed its deployment today..."
"What...what kind of...er?" the President of the Philippines asked.
"Sky Survey Probe?" Chen Hao explained.
"What does it do?"
"Mute him."
Chen Hao was too lazy to explain. This guy didn't know anything about science, and explaining would be a waste of time.
So...
He directly drew a conclusion: "The Hunters will arrive in the solar system more than half a year earlier than previously estimated."
What?!
Except for the President of the Philippines who was muted, the other heads of state exclaimed one after another. The video conference held by nearly 200 countries was instantly filled with countless noisy voices.
Shock.
Panic.
Some heads of state were even so scared that they were about to wet their pants.
If it was one or two months earlier, perhaps they could speed up the progress of the Dyson Sphere by risking their lives.
But...
More than half a year!
And China's convening of an online meeting almost certainly confirmed that the Dyson Sphere would not be completed in time—otherwise, why hold a meeting?
"Is the Earth going to be destroyed? Are we... all going to die?!"
"I said a long time ago, we should just give up!"
"There are still more than 100 billion on our royal family's account that hasn't been spent, sob sob..."
When people die, they can't spend their money.
What a great tragedy!
"Mute them all!"
Hearing the countless noisy voices, Chen Hao frowned: "Since we are holding a meeting, it means there is a solution. The premise is that all countries must unconditionally cooperate with us—we need more people to participate!"
Almost all the heads of state were muted.
Why 'almost'?
"Mr. Chen, can the Dyson Sphere be completed in advance?" Cindy asked quickly.
She was the only one who wasn't muted, not because North America was stronger, but because...
She was one of his own!
"No." Chen Hao shook his head.
"Then... what else can we do?"
"This is my plan."
The next moment.
Chen Hao's video camera switched to a drawing: "First of all, build more power plants around the world, including thermal power, wind power, and solar power—nuclear power is out of the question, the construction cycle is too long, and there's no time."
"Secondly, create massive supercapacitor energy storage modules."
Supercapacitor energy storage module
"The last point is to build large-scale geothermal power generation units on Venus!"
That's right!
Relying solely on Earth's electricity is not enough.
We must develop multiple lines of development.
Venus.
The planet closest to Earth. Due to the extremely high concentration of carbon dioxide, a very serious greenhouse effect has formed, and the surface temperature is nearly 500 degrees.
No need to provide any energy. Geothermal heat itself is a source of energy!
Venus
The Dyson Sphere provides energy!
Earth's own electricity!
Venus geothermal power generation!
The superposition of the three...
Is it enough?
Not necessarily!
In addition to open source, we also need energy storage.
To build a huge supercapacitor energy storage module, start storing energy immediately.
Doesn't Earth already have electricity resources?
The Dyson Sphere is already under construction. Although the progress is not much at present, the part that has been built can already supply power, right?
From now until 17 months later, release all the stored energy, plus real-time power supply from the Dyson Sphere...
Perhaps, we can open an artificial wormhole!
"Turn on the microphones."
Chen Hao instructed General Wang to say to the heads of state: "Raise your hands to speak, understand? Don't swarm and make a mess!"
The previously muted microphones were turned on again.
So.
The heads of state raised their hands like good babies, as if they were students waiting for the teacher to call their names.
Only when you are called can you speak.
Otherwise, shut up.
This is Chen Hao today!
