A big country of aerospace with black technology

Chapter 301 Equatorial Space Elevator Base!

"We are able to accept a variety of payment methods."

Yang Yi clasped his hands together and said calmly:

"Including, but not limited to, mines, farms, ranches, etc."

Ethiopia's economic situation is not very ideal.

It can even be said that most of their income comes from agriculture.

It is still almost an agricultural country.

“Can we use farm and ranch development rights as collateral?”

The economic minister opposite asked, adjusting his glasses.

The price of power satellites, for such an agricultural country.

It is indeed a bit expensive.

Their GDP in the past year was only US$30 billion.

But they do need power.

It's not just the Capital Region's millions of people who need enough electricity.

If you want to develop industry, you cannot do without electricity.

Before that, they had considered developing hydropower.

But finally gave up.

The amount of investment in hydropower is huge and will seriously change the water conservancy situation downstream of the hydropower station.

This is for an agricultural country.

It's unbearable.

"Yes, but we still need to evaluate the specific transfer price."

Yang Yi nodded and said.

They had a lot of discussions before going abroad.

Because the country here is generally financially tight.

Even though there are abundant resources, the finances are still short of money.

It is impossible for them to directly spend hundreds of millions of dollars.

So we can only let them use resources in exchange.

Although the capital return cycle has become longer.

But in the long run, it's not a bad thing.

Galaxy Power itself is not all about making money.

What they value more is influence.

It is to use the hand of energy to penetrate into various countries.

The West often uses proxies when dealing with these countries.

Support an agent who is close to them and remove all obstacles for him.

Then use agents to obtain various resources within the country.

Natural resources such as oil and gas, gold mines, diamonds, etc.

As well as resources for businesses, banks, companies, etc.

Although this approach gained a lot of benefits for a while.

But it also comes with high costs.

In the end, it may be all in vain.

Dragon Kingdom took another path.

First, conduct all-round cooperation with these countries.

Carry out in-depth cooperation in economic and other fields.

In this way, no matter who comes to power, it will be inseparable from cooperation with the Dragon Kingdom.

Although the initial investment is relatively large, it is more stable in the long run.

Don’t worry about the adverse effects caused by the agent’s backlash.

"Thank you for your generosity!"

The Minister of Economics opposite stood up and said with great emotion.

Their economy is not strong and they have few ways to speak out internationally.

Before that, they had also wanted to build a large power station locally.

But the large energy companies basically pay little attention to them.

After all, they don't have much money.

The investment in a large power station can easily reach tens of billions.

It’s already their entire year’s GDP.

It can be said that the cooperation plan brought by Yang Yi and others gave them an opportunity for development.

"But I hope that our people, when working locally, will not encounter anything like yesterday."

As the meeting came to an end, Yang Yi said seriously to the Minister of Economic Affairs.

The people attacked yesterday have been handed over to the local police department.

However, in such a short period of time, the local police have not found anything yet.

"Of course, of course."

The Minister of Economy said with some trepidation.

Compared to Galaxy Power, which can bring hundreds of millions of dollars in investment, those few people are almost not worth mentioning.

The Minister of Economy has already thought that no matter what, they must tell the mastermind as soon as possible.

"Our people will discuss specific cooperation matters with you as soon as possible."

Yang Yi is already preparing to go to the next country for cooperation negotiations.

"As for the attack, please give us an explanation as soon as possible."

Yang Yi's tone was not very good.

This matter is indeed a local issue, and it’s hard for the other party to say anything.

Return to the hotel under the Galaxy Power Package.

Although the Ethiopian capital has a population of millions, there are not many high-end hotels.

The place Yang Yi and the others lived in was no more than a three-star hotel.

It is already one of the top high-end hotels in the area.

Cheng Hanjie has already planned his trip to Gabon.

The situation in Gabon is not much better than that in Ethiopia.

Gabon's population is even smaller, with less than two million people across the country.

There are not as many people as a prefecture-level city in China.

Last year's gross national product was more than 1.2 billion.

Although Gabon has a small population and a small land, it has an advantage that Ethiopia does not have.

His country has a lot of oil resources.

GDP per capita is much higher.

But these are not the focus for Yang Yi.

The point is that Gabon has an equatorial coast close to the Atlantic Ocean.

This time, the focus of their work is to obtain a local equatorial coastal area.

Used to prepare for future equatorial space elevators.

The space elevator is an essential technology in the space age.

It must be built in the equatorial area to maintain its own stability.

In other areas, it is difficult for the space balance end of the space elevator to remain stationary relative to the earth by relying on centrifugal force.

You must always rely on the engine's attitude maintenance.

But if it can be done, the space elevator will consume an astronomical amount of fuel every day.

Building a space elevator itself is about saving fuel.

In this way, it is completely worth the loss!

Looking at the equatorial region of the earth, there are actually not many areas where space elevators can be built.

Most of the area at the equator is ocean.

Crossing the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic oceans respectively.

On land, it traveled through Southeast Asia, Central Africa, and South America.

When considering the construction of a space elevator.

Zhang Xingyang’s idea is to be prepared.

The first step is to vigorously promote research on heavy offshore platforms.

If this technology is developed successfully, it will be possible for them to build a space elevator on the sea.

However, building a space elevator at sea is not only about technological progress.

A sufficiently strong naval defense is also needed.

The ropes and base of the space elevator are quite fragile.

The base is better. If it weighs tens or millions of tons, it can still withstand a wave of attacks.

Some defensive weapons can also be mounted on the base.

But the rope is very fragile.

It was impossible to install defensive weapons on the ropes.

From the ground to space, the distance is hundreds of kilometers.

There are simply too many places where the enemy can attack at will.

If there is not a strong enough aircraft carrier battle group to guard it.

It's hard to reassure people about such a huge plan.

The second step is to cooperate with countries in the equatorial region to build a space elevator base locally.

Guarding the sea requires a strong navy, and bases on land require a strong army.

Needless to say, there is no need to say much about the strength of the Dragon Kingdom Army.

Gabon's capital area is very small and only has a small airport.

Fortunately, Yang Yi and the others did not rent a large passenger plane.

If they rent an Airbus A320, landing will be a more difficult problem.

"The security issues in Gabon should be better. I don't know if we will encounter the same problems as before."

Yang Yi said with some worry.

Ethiopia's northern states have conflicts with the central government, and some areas are even at war.

Yang Yi was actually mentally prepared for being attacked under such circumstances.

However, because of Gabon's oil economy, its national economic level is more than a little better than Ethiopia's.

It has been peaceful for a long time.

"They're not going to let it go."

Cheng Hanjie said expressionlessly.

They had received the news yesterday that the other party would definitely assassinate them along the way.

So they are ready to fight.

Compared to what you might encounter next.

The attacks of the past few days may have been nothing at all.

"We need to be mentally prepared. They may use more people and heavier weapons."

Cheng Hanjie looked out the window.

Only blue sky and white clouds can be seen.

In fact, there were two non-attack stealth fighter jets escorting them out of sight.

Even if they are attacked by fighter jets, they can come to support as quickly as possible.

Of course, in order not to cause unnecessary trouble.

The two fighter jets did not make any briefings.

And with their stealth capabilities.

Not to mention Central Africa, where radar technology is backward, even in the alliance region where technology is more advanced.

It won't necessarily be discovered.

The two drones took off from their ports on the Red Sea.

In fact, four drones were prepared, divided into two batches.

Rotate every twelve hours to replenish fuel.

In an emergency, a second batch of drones can arrive within a few hours.

Fortunately, the other party was not so crazy as to directly send fighter jets to intercept their business jet.

The business jet landed safely at the somewhat crude local airport.

Just after getting off the plane, Yang Yi and his group had not yet boarded the bus.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Cracking, gunshots like exploding beans rang out from around the airport.

The strong man, who was 1.92 meters tall, reacted immediately.

He took off a folding shield that was larger than the door panel from his back.

After pressing the button, it unfolds into a shield over two meters high and three meters wide.

"No. 2, No. 6, protect everyone."

After saying hello, Cheng Hanjie closed his mask.

Like a wild lion rushing towards the direction of the gunfire.

No. 2 is a strong man of 1.9 meters.

As for No. 6, he is a muscular man about 1.7 meters tall.

The two of them were each holding a huge shield at this time.

Protect the people behind you from two directions.

The shield has several different layers of ballistic-resistant materials.

Bulletproof ceramics, Kevlar fiber, titanium alloy plates.

Don't tell me that the opponent is using intermediate-power rifle ammunition.

Even the 12.7mm heavy incendiary armor-piercing round can stop one or two rounds.

In addition to No. 2 and No. 6, four more people followed Cheng Hanjie and rushed out.

The remaining three people, holding marksman's rifles, began to name the discovered killers one by one.

Whether it is their own shooting skills or the assistance of the helmet aiming system.

All make it impossible for killers who enter their shooting range to escape the fate of death.

From the sights, they had discovered that there should be a group of rabble on the opposite side.

Whether it was the clothes they were wearing or the tattered firearms in their hands.

It was revealed that they were just a group of desperadoes.

If you meet ordinary people, their sudden attack may be of some use.

But this time they were meeting professionals.

After a burst of crackling gunfire.

There are very few people who can still stand on the opposite side.

I don’t know if I was forced into a corner or if I was prepared.

From within the sight, No. 4 saw the opponent carrying an old-fashioned rocket launcher.

Without giving the opponent time to launch, No. 4 fired a grenade directly.

boom!

After a burst of noise and fire.

Only a burning figure was left.

At this time, Cheng Hanjie and the four team members who rushed over had already made progress with the opponent.

The battle was basically one-sided.

The other party obviously did not expect that someone would rush close to him in such a short period of time.

Start a close combat with yourself.

Not to mention pistols, they don't even have daggers or other close combat weapons.

Cheng Hanjie didn't kill all of this group of people.

Instead, they directly broke their limbs.

After checking that there were no suicide poisons or explosives on them.

Only then did he take these people back with confidence.

"There were twenty-two people in total, sixteen died and six remained."

After taking inventory, Cheng Hanjie reported the situation to other people in the team.

“They basically use old guns from the last century, and some even use bolt-action rifles.

But there is an RPG rocket launcher. "

In fact, if their RPG is successfully launched, it may actually cause some damage.

But this possibility is very low.

The reaction speed of the security team members definitely exceeds the opponent's firing speed.

"They seemed like a bunch of sewer rats."

"They have been hiding and not daring to show up, or they think that this level of attack can scare us."

Yang Yi said with some disdain.

Cheng Hanjie didn't say anything, but carefully inspected the corpses and prisoners whose hands and feet were broken.

They all seemed to be local punks with almost nothing on them.

But they all have similar tattoos on their shoulders.

Not sure if they marked it.

After taking pictures with a portable camera, they are transmitted back to the country via satellite.

Let the domestic intelligence department investigate and see if there are any clues.

It took more than ten minutes after the gunfight stopped completely for someone on the ground to start cleaning up the mess.

As a country with a population of less than two million.

Their power in all aspects is very limited.

When faced with such a situation, the first reaction is to hide.

After finding no movement for more than ten minutes, he dared to come up and meet the victorious party.

As for how to judge the winner.

Very simple.

The one who is still alive is the winner.

Apparently, the one who fell to the ground was the loser.

"Please tidy up this place."

Cheng Hanjie said expressionlessly to several chubby policemen.

They had declared that they might be in danger before coming.

So I carry weapons for self-defense.

It also received local approval at the time.

This is also an important reason why Cheng Hanjie is not worried at all that they will get into trouble because of the use of weapons.

But even if it is not approved, nothing will happen.

At most, they were asked to leave by the local authorities.

"Okay, okay."

The policeman who spoke French was sweating on his forehead.

Gabon was a colony of Gaul for a long time.

So they have a lot of French speakers.

Cheng Hanjie and the others can communicate directly without the help of a translator.

The policeman looked at the group of people in front of him with some palpitations.

Although they didn't move much.

But just look at the miserable situation of these people on the ground holding long guns.

Considering that the total exchange of fire lasted less than three minutes.

These are a bunch of ruthless people! (End of chapter)
