Super technology leader

Sure enough, human progress requires the introduction of competition mechanisms.

If there is no competition, then humans are no different from salted fish.

At most, the salt should be sprinkled slowly to make the salted fish less salty.

It’s not sound, but it’s definitely the truth, that is, during the war, the development of human science and technology is just like "acceleration".

And the greater the scope of the war, the greater the "acceleration factor" of the point.

It's just that the cost of this kind of technological acceleration is too great, and the pain left to people may not be eliminated for a lifetime.

Even though the previous Cold War did not cause great destruction of the world, it also left many people living in inexplicable fear.

In addition, the two countries have been promoting each other's terror, so even if the crisis is resolved later, many people still feel that one day a large swath of deadly nuclear bombs will fly from the opposite side.

But after the crisis was lifted, there were no strong enemies, and Meriken slowly entered the salted fish state, and even started a public security war.

A beast is not going to compete for territory with another beast, nor is it hunting cattle and sheep, but hunting mice. This contrast makes the beast even its minions inflexible in command.

Also suffered.

After that, the whole world has entered the salted fish state.

It wasn't until the revival of another country that the world slowly retreated from the state of salted fish, or the original participating country dragged the world out of the state of salted fish.

If nothing happens, after some time, the world will once again enter a state of cold war.

And all of this was broken by the arrival of "alien".

Or it was broken by the unknown.

"Unknown" is sometimes more frightening, worrying, and nervous than aliens.

The horror of horror movies comes from the unknown.

The plot of the urban movie is almost like that. At most, a car suddenly rushes out to kill you, but you know what the car is like, so in terms of fear, the fear should be death.

But horror movies are different. The art and design of many horror movies are very self-defeating. Suddenly, in the dark, something that you haven't seen, but is extremely scary, is enough to scare people.

With "unfamiliar foreigners", even if there is competition, people in the global village will be consistent in the initial stage, even in the competition.

But how long this "outside" time can last, then I don't know. This should be related to the strengths and weaknesses of "unfamiliar foreigners".

After making a heavy bet on Tianxia, ​​Meriken was unwilling to lag behind and announced his latest decision the next morning.

They will use the Horizon Telescope program to find the unknown detector, and the configuration is better than the previous black hole search.

And one billion U.S. dollars of mission funding will definitely come out, but considering that a large amount of funds will take time to raise, it will pay 10 million U.S. dollars in the early stage.

The rest will arrive soon.

The two heads on the earth have spoken, and they will look for the unknown probe in different ways. Even Meriken, who talks big every day, really paid for it, although the remaining 990 million may never reach the account. Yes, but Meriken’s ability to do this in international affairs has already explained the problem.

Therefore, other capable countries have also contributed vigorously.

Especially in the orbit of Mars, there are Tianxia, ​​Europa, Peacock, Petroleum Alliance, and Meriken’s orbital probes. Tianxia has decided to contribute all of the Tianwen-1 orbiter. Let it consume precious fuel to actively change orbit to search for that detector.

Because the Mars Orbiter is too precious, other countries will not do this, but they will provide some coordinates for Tianwen-1 to search for that probe with more information.

And they will temporarily suspend their Mars exploration missions, consume a little fuel, and align the probe's imaging equipment to orbit.

The rest is waiting for the blind cat to kill the mouse.

The same is true on the earth. If equipment that consumes less resources is also allocated to the search channel, if you can obtain mission funding from Meriken, you can also invest more manpower and material resources.

This is the most prominent of Europa Space Agency.

It's not that they don't want to spend more money, but because they really don't have money, their debt crisis is getting worse and worse. They want to find money from other places to plug the hole and they are crazy, how can they still take money out.

Having spent so long in the United Nations, everyone knows that the more you invest, the greater your presence.

And this investment also depends on the strength. Not every country is eligible to invest. Your investment must match your national strength.

There are also some countries whose strength is okay, but the superficiality is left. Otherwise, they won't be unable to spend money and resources at this critical time.

Of course, there are other reasons, for example, no one can be 100% sure that the thing is an alien device.

Even if it is really alien equipment, alien technology is also hierarchical. If they can't bring enough benefits, they will not invest.

The advantage of this is that the loss can be suppressed to a minimum, but the disadvantage is that with a sufficiently high profit, they will not be able to eat the first batch.

However, there are Tianxia and Meriken against them. They would have been unable to get the first batch of benefits, because no matter how much you put in, it is impossible for Tianxia and Meriken to put in more.

So, it's better to stay honestly.

After all, they are Europa like salted fish, and the world's center of gravity is long gone by them.

It is generally not a good thing to be the first bird at this time.

"Shooting a bird" is not just a term unique to Tianxia.

Sure enough, the world's biggest gun spoke.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are in a very dangerous situation!"

In the last hour of the morning, Meriken sent a congressman who spoke very well.

"Aliens have come to our solar system. We believe that human society can no longer be like before, we must unite..."

The word unity is quite interesting when it comes out of the mouths of Congressmen in Meriken.

The people in the hall did not speak, but watched his performance.

And this person didn't let others down, and quickly said his central idea.

Need technology!

Aliens are here, and the future of mankind is at stake, so he called on Navigator to disclose the technology of unmanned detection spacecraft to countries participating in the search for unknown probes.

Anyway, Navigator has contributed to the unmanned detection spacecraft. It is better to disclose the technology directly, so that other countries can also manufacture corresponding equipment, and humans' resistance to aliens can also increase.

Of course, he didn't let Navigator Company take out the technology in vain. He suggested that countries provide some funds to compensate Navigator Company.
