When director Li finally succeeded in seeing Lu Zhou, it was the next evening.

"You do it simply. You don't know who you are. You don't even get a message back."

Hearing the complaint in this sentence, Lu Zhou smiled sheepishly, but did not make any explanation, just pretended not to hear, and made a gesture of asking for help to the teacup on the tea table.

"I'm tired after driving so far. Let's have a cup of tea first."

Seeing that Lu Zhou had no intention of introspection, director Li lost his temper for a while and sighed.

"It's not that I said you, such a big thing, you didn't say a word, you just farted / walked away, it's really a bit speechless, right? Of course, I'm not here to blame you. I just want to say something to you. Now the whole world is waiting for you to come out and make a squeak. Even if you say a few words casually, you won't refuse such a small thing. "

Lu Zhou: "elder martial brother Luo has already said what should be said. I saw the video of his report and said it very well. Even if I was asked to go, it was just a repetition of his point of view. It didn't mean much."

"Professor Luo is Professor Luo. Why don't you understand? What you want to hear is your voice, not his or someone else's."

Can there be any difference in this thing?

looking at the sincere director Li, it's hard for Lu Zhou to say anything, so he sighed softly.

"What do you want to know?"

Director Li immediately said, "what is the possibility of super light speed navigation through hyperspace technology! If possible, how long will it take? "

After a sip of coffee on the table, the boat began to talk after thinking for a while.

"It's a potential direction to navigate across the stellar system through hyperspace technology, and my intuition tells me that this road can probably go through. However, if we want to make this direction a reality, it must be at least a century later. "

"A century later Do you? "

"That's right," Lu Zhou nodded, looking at director Li with a lost expression on his face. "It's not so fast from theory to reality. It takes time for any science to settle in the direction of technology. Moreover, I don't think we should take the speed of super light as a strategic goal in the first place. "

Director Li: "why?"

"Because it doesn't make much sense."

Putting down the coffee cup, the boat looked at the old man and continued, "it is more realistic to realize the super light speed communication between the interplanetary stars through the super space technology than the super light speed navigation, and the hope will be greater in a century. And the research of the former will certainly inspire the latter. Before we can send a spacecraft with a large mass to a further place, we must first find out how to realize our plan on photons or electrons, muons, tau particles and other leptons... "

Looking at the director Li who took out his notebook and took notes seriously, Lu Zhou was slightly stunned, then said with a smile.

"There's nothing to remember about these things. Even if you do, it's useless. No one knows what will happen 50 years later."

"Why is it useless? I remember everything you said! "

Looking at director Li, who has become paranoid, Lu Zhou shakes his head. Just as he was about to say something, the old man who took the notes closed his scribbled notes and watched him seriously.

"What you said is very important. It's just that CCTV is going to do a program on this recently. If you have time Do you want to think about it? "

"Let's talk about the program next time," said Lu Zhou, not thinking about the tone of the old man's voice, but on a different topic. "You're here right now. I'd like to discuss something with you."

Hearing that Lu Zhou had something to discuss with himself, director Li immediately raised his spirits.

"Please tell me!"

"Don't be so nervous," continued Lu, smiling. "In the long run, I suggest starting Mars."

At the moment of hearing this sentence, the expression on Chief Li's face suddenly froze.

Expected that he would make such an expression, Lu Zhou didn't care, just continued.

“…… In addition, I said that this kind of launch is not only a symbolic one, but also a part of the long-term development strategy of China's space program and is implemented in specific work. "

Seeing Lu Zhou didn't seem to be joking, director Li also gradually restrained his surprised expression on his face, which gradually became serious.

"Have you found anything?"

“…… What found what? "

The body sat up straight, director Li stared at the boat with bright eyes, and continued eagerly: "for example, the hyperspace passage Did you find a stable way to open it? "

Seeing that he seems to have misunderstood his meaning, Lu zhousighed and explained patiently.

"You overestimate my ability. This kind of problem, which needs to concentrate the wisdom of the whole civilization and spend tens or even hundreds of years to solve, can not be solved by someone clapping his head. However, if there is any relationship with the hyperspace channel, there are also some relationships. "Director Li: "what's the relationship?"

"Think about why there is no high-speed rail in Singapore."

"What kind of high-speed rail does Singapore want," Mr. Li said with a smile. "Just in their big place, they can drive a car around the land line. Unless it's a transnational high-speed rail, there's no need to build that thing at all, right?"

"That's right," he continued, pointing out. "Many people have made a mistake in the logic of science and technology. It's not because we have hyperspace channels that we can expand into a more distant world, but because we have expanded our borders into a distant world, so we have to develop technologies that can put them under our actual control."

"Science is pure, but technology is born to solve problems. Only when we have a real demand for superluminal navigation and communication can it be solved. And if we stay on earth, or in the Earth Moon system, maybe we will never solve this problem. "

Director Li frowned and said thoughtfully, "so In your opinion, we should also plan a place on Mars similar to the Guanghan special zone? Create demand to solve this problem? "

"If we don't hurry, we still have to take a bite at a time," continued the ship with a slight smile and a serious tone, "but as I said, Mars is an essential part of our space strategy whether the hyperspace channel can be opened stably or not. In the long run, we can first consider building a settlement on Mars similar to the lunar science station, and then slowly advance our plan. "

Director Li seriously asked, "how long is the long-term cycle?"

"A hundred years."

"Hiss..." After taking a breath of cool air, director Li said, "a hundred years It's a long cycle. "

"So I have a corresponding medium-term plan," said the ship with a smile. "Because of the change of orbit, it is difficult for us to plan stable flights for Mars at present, and it is also difficult to ensure the safety of the colonists in the Martian settlements. But as a medium-term goal, we don't need to focus directly on Mars, but we can consider the more difficult Lagrange point. "

Director Li frowned softly: "Lagrange point?"

Lu Zhou nodded his head: "that's right."

"Lagrange point, also known as the moving point, is the five special solutions of the restricted three body problem in celestial mechanics. L2 is the hotspot of international deep space exploration, which is located at the far point on the line between the sun and the earth. But I'm not talking about L2 here, but L4 and L5, also known as Trojan point. "

"As a medium-term plan, my idea is to build a permanent space station on L4 or L5 to undertake the tasks of material transfer, mineral resource processing, ship docking, repair, and even manufacturing."

"If the Moon Palace is our outpost to control the earth and the moon, then the base of the Lagrange point will be our outpost to control the solar system. It can not only be our transit station to Mars, but also help us reach for the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and become our factory in space. "

Hearing Lu Zhou's description, director Li opened his mouth wide involuntarily and wanted to say something, but he did not know how to describe his surprise for a while.

After a long time, he said slowly.

"That sounds too much..."

Lu Zhou: "it's ridiculous, isn't it?"

Director Li didn't speak, but his expression was obviously tacit.

"I admit that this plan sounds strange, but from the point of view of time, it is definitely possible to achieve it. As I said before, we don't need to do it as a goal of three years and five years, but as a long-term plan with 50 years and 100 years as the project cycle. "

"In the short term, this project may be at a loss, but I believe that all the losses can play their value in the future. This wealth will bring great benefits to our future generations, even if it does not seem to be profitable at all. "

After a pause, Lu Zhou continued, "it's not unprofitable to correct it. At least our aerospace industry will prosper because of this hundred year plan."

Maybe it was touched by the last words of the last land boat.

After pondering for a long time, director Li nodded seriously.

"I will take your opinion to Chang'an Street. I can't guarantee if I can pass As a matter of fact, I'm afraid that even the elder can't make a decision. I can only give you a result after the meeting and discussion. "

The expression of the boat relaxed.

"Then I'll trouble you."

Director Li asked tentatively, "do you have anything like a plan? Please make a copy for me if you can. After all, there's no reason to talk. If there's a visible plan, it'll be more convincing. "

"I'm ready to know you're going to say that."

With a faint smile, Lu Zhou pulled out a pile of thick paper bags from under the tea table, put them on the tea table, and pushed them gently in front of director Li.Looking at the paper bag on the table, director Li was slightly shocked, picked it up from the tea table, took apart the cotton thread at the seal, and drew a piece of paper out of it.

"This is..."

Two words just exit, that say half of question, then stuck in the throat.

Incredibly looking at the contents of the paper, director Li's eyes stared at the boss, as if he couldn't believe what he saw in front of his eyes.

“…… A kind of track habitat with Stanford ring configuration. Every engineering parameter in the blueprint has been calculated rigorously. If conditions permit, even if it is directly thrown to the construction company to follow it, there will be no problem. "

Appreciating the face that was paralyzed by surprise, Lu Zhou picked up the coffee cup on the tea table, took a sip of it, and then happily continued, "although it's not a plan, it's not a plan Should it be enough? "
