Mankind cannot be in a weak position in this negotiation. Because human beings will frighten each other for a moment and a half. They can only harden their scalp and pursue the victory. Even if they are scared to death, they can't show timidity.
In addition, it is to confirm the bottom line of the new human side in the negotiations. In fact, according to the opinions of most people, it is not impossible to hand over all the 400 amoeba points they have to buy a peaceful development... Anyway, mankind must keep this war star. It is nothing to spend more 400 amoeba points.
But in this way, it is easy for the other party to see through the reality of the new human civilization.
Once the other party tries to test human beings in turn, it will be completely exposed. Even if it is not exposed, it will be very troublesome. After so many years of intrigues, everyone is a little exhausted.
"If we make too much concessions in the process of negotiation, the other party may doubt and begin to speak loudly?"
"But the breakdown of the negotiations is not what we want."
People know too little about Apollo civilization. They don't know each other's character or their thinking mode. It's really difficult to guess what is thinking in each other's heart, which is very uncomfortable.
Only in the last test, the new human civilization deliberately exaggerated its war damage. But what is the other party's reaction? Is it the same as expected? Humans don't know. It's impossible for humans to place spies in each other's war stars
In short, this negotiation is extremely difficult and important. Everything depends on the flexibility of the negotiators.
After some discussion, the judges who had met with Apollo civilization must have gone. At least they met a few times and were a little familiar.
Including Zhang Yuan, the author of the "paper on additional color perception", it's best to go too. Now Apollo civilization always takes this paper as an excuse. In case the other party still wants to be a demon in this regard, it can fight with reason.
Even if he is sure that this paper is absolutely true and reliable, because it has been successfully tested in humans, how can it be false?
On the other hand, as the chief of staff of the Scientific Council and a former captain, Zhang Yuan shared a lot of power and needed to accept such obligations.
Even if this mission is very dangerous, it may be life-threatening.
"I have no problem here..."
Seeing everyone thinking silently, Zhang Yuan said, "well, there are not many people going. After all, this matter is very dangerous. If the negotiation fails, it is possible to tear the skin and start a war directly... If you go to too many senior leaders, it may directly become a Hongmen banquet and be served by the other party. "
"Therefore, all of you here should be ready for war or smooth negotiations. Madam captain, you don't have to go. Sitting in the base camp is the best choice. "
The captain nodded and said, "I see. Next, please."
After such discussion, a total of 20 diplomats were carefully selected.
Then, mankind sent a message asking the other party's army to retreat for a distance before they can create conditions for negotiation, otherwise there will be no negotiation!
Three days later, the army of Apollo civilization retreated by two astronomical units, showing its sincerity.
Next, the two sides' spacecraft began formal negotiations near the air defense identification zone.
……
Al planet VI, a huge squid, as the top aristocrat of Apollo civilization, was born with the wind and water and lived a luxurious life unimaginable to ordinary civilians.
However, Al planet VI has a bad temper recently because he is involved in a huge trouble.
At the beginning, the whole high-level wanted to rob a war star through intimidation. This bad idea was put forward by him.
If you really grab this war star, it can greatly improve the prestige of their faction, including the whole family
As a result, I met a hard bone that has not been chewed down so far.
So many troops have been mobilized, and a series of injuries have occurred. The people at hand have begun to be afraid of fighting, and the political enemies have begun to splash dirty water. The combination of internal and external problems has made him a little energy overdraft.
Al planet VI understands that if this operation fails completely, his prestige will plummet, and his forces will be seized by political enemies and purged internally. He will fall from his current high position and will no longer be trusted by the patriarchal civilization.
Therefore, with a certain purpose, this big squid can only go to the front line in person, conduct diplomatic negotiations and try to make the final recovery.
Anyway, he must blackmail more interests!
"Sure! Damn new humans! "
The emotions of Apollo civilized individuals usually appear on their faces. When their faces are dark and shiny, it indicates that their brains are congested rapidly and in a state of rage, vigilance or imminent attack.
This physiological phenomenon evolved from the original situation. In ancient times, these big octopus preyed on a kind of "cat shrimp" in the shallow sea. Although these squids were large, they were not very aggressive. In order to avoid predators, they have evolved a set of defense measures against black liquor polluting water sources.
However, in the interstellar age, this whole set of defense means represents unfriendly etiquette. No one likes to be vomited, so these big squids usually cover their huge heads to avoid being observed by each other.
If you can't help it, you can spit the ink in your helmet. No one knows anyway.
"3000... 3000 amoeba points is our bottom line!" Al Planet Six spoke directly to the lion in the face of a human judge who was only one-third of his size.
He changed the original 4000 amoeba points to 3000, which he thought was a big concession. In fact, Apollo man "Al planet VI" was also very nervous. His spaceship was full of confidants. If the negotiations really don't go well, those political enemies will seize the opportunity to criticize wantonly, so it's better not to bring them.
"We gave a 25% discount on the trial of the court..."
All the human judges sitting in front of the big squid are silent. The squid's way of speaking is too rough. If you really want to negotiate well, wouldn't you fool people with this excuse?
Zhang Yuan saw this kind of fully armed squid aliens face to face for the first time. These guys are large, about 10 meters long. They hide in tailored mechanical armor. They can't see the specific appearance with the naked eye, but can only see the looming white muscles.
As a scientific adviser, he just listened to the negotiations between the two sides and did not express his views directly.
"Cough..." Zhang Yuan coughed gently. These are some codes agreed in advance, indicating that the human way of speaking should be harder. These squids are still playing virtual here.
The meeting place of the two sides was among a large spacecraft of the Apollo civilization. The large spacecraft came alone and stayed at the border of the human Air Defense Identification Zone, which was monitored by more than a dozen armed spacecraft of the new humanity side.
It is basically a situation of mutual deterrence.
