Chapter 210 Gravity Extraction and Refining! Decompressor Station!
"Your department will handle the rest on your own, but if there are any other emergencies, report to the headquarters immediately."
"Yes!"
After closing the communication conversation with Nicolo, Leon ordered the pilot to fly the shuttle over Yellowstone Park in North America.
Looking at the scene below, Li Ang felt quite emotional for a moment.
The former natural scenic spot is now covered by lava lakes and charred coal, and the clear lake water has long since evaporated.
The boiling and steaming lava lake is slowly flowing across the ground. Although the scene here is desolate and dilapidated, it also contains some vitality.
The vitality of planet Earth is actually far more tenacious than humans imagine.
As long as there is no continued destructive behavior, the earth can completely rely on its own healing ability to restore to its former vibrant state.
What's more, with the technological assistance of giant global companies, the speed of restoring the earth's natural environment will be greatly improved, accelerating the progress.
"It looks like our people will have things to do again!"
……
1 year and 2 months later.
Standing in the top-floor lobby of a giant company's headquarters, Li Ang was gazing at the giant holographic screen in Times Square.
The clear and huge giant screen is currently broadcasting the latest status of the Earth in Universe 002 "Pacific Rim".
#寰宇日报:002 The ecological environment of the earth has been greatly improved, and 95% of volcanic eruptions have been controlled.
The ratio of carbon dioxide to oxygen in the air has also dropped back to normal levels. In the next decade, the Earth is expected to return to a normal ecological environment. #
……
#Intelligence talk: Soldiers from the Arasaka division have found out the number of colonies of the Pioneer civilization and their location coordinates for the giant company.
According to preliminary investigations, the number of additional colonized planets acquired this time has reached 96, of which 69 are medium-yield resource planets, and 2 planets have similar terrain features to the Earth. #
……
#Doctor Paradox: The "antimatter engine" technology of A1 Universe Wanderer has been intercepted by the research department of a giant enterprise.
The latest scientific achievement of the Science Hub has just been released, and that is the much anticipated "antimatter shield"!
This technology point will enable our giant enterprise fleet to have more outstanding defense capabilities. #
……
Watching this series of good news constantly appearing on the giant screen, Li Ang's sense of accomplishment became stronger and stronger. These are the achievements made by the world's giant companies!
It is a miracle created by human civilization!
"I didn't expect that the number of colonized planets of the pioneer civilization is not so small, almost reaching 100."
Li Ang laughed secretly in his heart.
After careful searching by the giant enterprise exploration team, they found the coordinates of these colonies, as well as the characteristics and resource distribution of each planet in the pioneer's information database.
Only a small number of these colonies show signs of having been developed. The vast majority of planets were simply marked by the pioneers and preserved as resource reserve planets.
Most of the mineable minerals above are barely touched.
They focused their main energy on colonizing the Earth.
"There are so many resource planets that can be used and mined by the pioneer civilization, but these pioneers chose to attack the human Earth. It seems that they have other intentions!"
Based on the information discovered by the giant company investigators and his personal guesses, Li Ang speculated that the pioneers might not only be targeting the earth, but also the technological points of mankind.
Perhaps, the pioneer civilization also wants to use the human technology tree to make up for its own lack of technological points.
Things like aircraft, long-range weapons, and various sophisticated experimental equipment. Once the pioneers obtain these things, they may be able to develop a fleet belonging to the pioneer civilization!
After all, the planetary consciousness "Eva" on Pandora has such an idea of civilization development.
To a certain extent, all civilizations in the universe have very similar common ideas when it comes to "freeloading".
Developing technology on your own is not as fast or more convenient as stealing other people’s technology points for free!
What's more, the pioneers themselves have the habit of getting things for free. Their wormhole technology was developed by relying on the stable wormholes near their own galaxy.
If it weren't for this "god-given" there, how could the pioneer civilization have the ability to colonize interstellar space.
Any civilization that wants to break through the shackles and achieve a higher level of dimension will not allow itself to have obvious technological defects.
For individuals, having cutting-edge advantages in a certain field can allow them to go further and achieve higher achievements.
But for a large organization of this magnitude as a civilization, it must cultivate itself into an all-round hexagonal technological warrior in order to ensure the reproduction and survival of civilization!
Because there will always be some alien heretics who may take an unconventional approach and add technological points to unexpected places. This will put the comprehensiveness of human civilization to a test.
Li Ang felt that the pioneer civilization was aware of the huge gap between itself and humans in terms of technological thinking and civilization development model.
If we don’t take preemptive action now before human civilization develops and extinguish the flames of humanity as soon as possible, in a few hundred years, humanity will inevitably ignite a raging fire!
By then, I'm afraid it will be humans who come to trouble the pioneers.
However, what the pioneers never expected was that they had finally driven humans to Antarctica and Australia, and almost completely wiped out humanity.
A global giant company suddenly appeared out of nowhere!
We were leading by 10,000 in economy and had pushed all three lanes to the enemy's base, but in the end the opponent overturned the game with 10,000 in economy. I was so angry.
It is obvious that in this plane, their pioneer civilization is the real villain, but suddenly an alien demon descends. What is going on?
Looking at these unexpected gains, Li Ang felt ecstatic in his heart. These dozens of extra resource stars could be used as industrial zones to bring him additional corporate currency growth.
That’s quite a profit!
In addition, the biological gene bank of the pioneer civilization also contains data on alien life forms that they discovered and collected on other planets.
This information is also a rare treasure for the biotechnology departments of the world's giant companies.
This means that the giant company can not only clone and replicate a number of creatures from other planets, but also enrich its biological gene library based on the genes of these creatures.
In order to increase the killing range of the Scorpion Tailed Lion virus.
However, at this time, for the world's giant company, the biggest news is not these news, but the material decompressor that has just been completed and officially put into the production process!
The third megastructure of this giant enterprise has become the headline news of this month, and the people of the entire Utopia are paying attention to it.
……
At this moment, we are on the spaceship heading to the mass decompressor building!
"Jillian, why did you N54 News come all the way here when you weren't reporting on the reconstruction of North America on Earth 002?"
Stanley, who was standing by, looked at his colleague Gillian with a joking expression and spoke to her.
As a popular reporter for the Global Times, Stanley is considered to be the top reporter and news reporter in Ideal City.
"Why, only reporters from your Huanyu Daily are allowed here, but we, the small newspapers, are not allowed to come here to film and interview other news?"
Jillian Jordan responded sharply.
She is the host of N54 news media, although the global giant company integrates all companies, media, and forces in the cyber world.
However, the original organizational structure has basically been retained, and even the gangster forces are still the same people.
If the water is too clear, there will be no fish. Giant companies respect the local ecological environment, but all illegal activities must be carried out within the rules set by Li Ang.
As for these media organizations, they are rushing to report the latest news every day, vying to make headlines, and grabbing exclusive reporting rights.
"Hahaha! No, but it won't be that easy for you to snatch the headlines from me this time."
"Because I'm the first reporter to get an appointment for an interview, you guys can just queue up behind me and ask irrelevant questions!"
After saying that, Stanley, who was in a good mood, turned around, leaving Gillian, who was looking resentful and angry, and went to the other side with the cameraman to start today's live interview mission.
In front of the professional camera, he wore a work badge around his neck, an exquisite and well-fitting brand-name suit, and a sexy, shiny slicked-back hair.
Stanley's showy appearance perfectly illustrates what a striking gold medal reporter is.
Behind Stanley, employees wearing the company's work uniforms with "LA" metal buttons on the collars and cuffs of their shirts were facing the giant structure in front of them.
The next stop of this spacecraft is the third giant building of the Universal Corporation - the [Matter Decompressor] Station!
Standing on the observation deck in the spacecraft, the giant structure not far away looks like a tiny mayfly in front of the even larger and deeper black hole that is as void as space.
Although human eyes cannot directly observe black holes, they can perceive that the star field in front of the matter decompressor is still very different from other star fields.
Other star regions would have some light or scattered planets, dotted in that dark space.
The only thing was the star field in front of them, which was completely dark. Any light that fell here would be sucked into the depths of the black hole.
Only observers with rich imagination can feel that there is a huge and distorted star in front of them, which stirs all the matter around it into the unobservable "abyss".
However, the employees and reporters on the spacecraft do not have to worry about whether the spacecraft will be pulled in and twisted by the strong gravity of the black hole.
In fact, they are still a long time away from the black hole. Even if they reach the edge of the black hole, they will not be pulled into the black hole as long as they do not cross the matter decompressor.
On this side, the cameraman Mike, who was ready, made an "OK" gesture to Stanley, indicating that the live broadcast shooting had officially begun.
"Ahem!" Stanley cleared his throat tactically. He carefully adjusted his clothes and hairstyle, and then tightly gripped the microphone in his hand.
After the countdown ended, he smiled and faced the camera calmly, saying his opening words as always:
"Hello! Hello everyone, I am your Stanley!!"
"Welcome to the exclusive interview with the Global Times. Next, I'm going to introduce you to a big guy."
After he finished speaking, Stanley slightly tilted his body to allow the camera to capture the matter decompressor and the space in which the decompressor mined the black hole.
He then continued to explain to the audience:
"Today we have come all the way to the construction site of the third wonder of the Universal Corporation. Do you see that big thing? It's called the Matter Decompressor."
"On the surface, it doesn't seem that big, but in fact..."
"Its total area is 2,400 square kilometers, which is roughly the size of two Los Angeles cities!"
The news that Stanley is going to report today is a major event that has been hotly discussed in Ideal City.
That is the miraculous megastructure that the giant corporation of the universe claimed to have built on the edge of the black hole two months ago, this huge and magnificent matter decompressor!
“I believe that many viewers have already understood the role and symbolic significance of this decompressor for giant companies and human civilization.”
"It can free up labor to a great extent, allowing more clones and replicants to be invested in rebuilding Earth 01 and 02, and also bring us a large amount of minerals."
"However, I think everyone, including me and our staff at the Global Daily, is curious about the workflow and production environment of this miraculous giant."
“So we invited Ms. Qi Wei, the director of the Matter Decompressor, to answer your questions!”
After he finished speaking, Stanley moved the microphone in his hand to the female supervisor next to him.
"Director Qiwei, the Universal Corporation built a matter decompressor in the black hole. Was it intended to demonstrate the technological strength of mankind, or was it..."
Qi Wei, wearing a neat company uniform, exudes a refined and decisive temperament. Facing Stanley's question, she responded calmly:
"The reason is simple, for a lot of resources."
Qi Wei showed off her icy beauty style. When she looked at the camera, her expression did not fluctuate at all:
"I understand the confusion of many people, and I know they are curious about why the decompressor is installed on a black hole instead of on another planet."
"In fact, the minerals and resources contained in black holes are far beyond our imagination. It is much easier to mine on ordinary planets than to conduct starburst mining."
"I think that only by snatching food from the gluttonous mouth of a black hole and extracting the resources needed by mankind can we prove the strength and ambition of human civilization."
Under Qi Wei's narration, the people who were watching the live broadcast felt a sense of pride and honor from the bottom of their hearts.
This is not about any ideological issues, but only a pure state of mind that is inspired and excited about the prosperity of human civilization.
After all, the strength of giant companies is closely related to human civilization and the future well-being of every human being here!
When the world's giant companies create a large number of products and improve production materials, they also pay great attention to the production value of workers.
Everyone will receive corresponding welfare distribution under the giant enterprise rule of "equivalent exchange".
Not more, not less, just right.
Every time a giant building is built by a global giant corporation, productivity is improved and human self-confidence is boosted, which is closely related to the humans in the ideal city.
You must know that in most of the time in human history, the value created by workers will not be respected by the upper class.
It provides an unobstructed platform for everyone who wants to rise and succeed.
In this circulating class channel, one can either lie down and enjoy the benefits that giant companies bring to human society, or work hard for giant companies in exchange for honors, medals, and generous rewards.
It just depends on everyone's thought.
The labor value of everyone will be fully respected, and the prosperity of giant enterprises is also linked to the direct interests of mankind!
The force is mutual, and so is respect.
The world's giant companies can create a diverse, prosperous and stable social environment for mankind. The people here will naturally feel sincerely happy for the prosperity of the giant companies.
"In addition, considering the special working environment on the material decompressor, the giant company will provide these employees with the best and most comfortable accommodation."
"We will also provide a monthly salary five times higher than the local average in Ideal City, and pay it promptly in the form of weekly wages."
"Of course, the work intensity and requirements here are higher than in other regions, so we are more strict in selecting employees."
"Physical fitness, mental ability, team communication and collaboration skills, and the quality of not being afraid of danger are the candidates we need."
After she finished speaking, Qiwei led Stanley to the other side of the spacecraft's observation deck and pointed to the Crystal Palace not far from the matter decompressor.
"The orbital aviation department of the giant company has built a new crystal palace here to provide entertainment for the staff here."
"The increase in wages will stimulate consumption and make the market environment here more active. It will also attract more people to come here to participate in labor and provide various services for employees."
“So it’s kind of a virtuous economic cycle.”
Then, Qiwei took Stanley to the other side and pointed to the fleet array not far away, which was the navy of the global giant enterprise.
In order to protect this only full-level megastructure, Leon specially dispatched 10 Infinity-class starships and 25 RCS-class cruisers for long-term garrison.
“This is an important asset for a giant company, so we will build a complete series of production, consumption and entertainment industry chains around the decompressor station.”
"We have also arranged for the most elite naval forces of the giant company to stay here to protect the humans here!"
The signal that Qiwei sent out through this live interview with Stanley could not be more obvious.
And this is exactly the message that Leon wants to convey, that is, the world's giant enterprises are beneficial to material decompressors, encouraging more people to come here and engage in construction and production!
Even if you stay here to sell vegetables or farm, as long as you can accept the difficulties of being away from home, you can earn a good salary here.
"Wow! Dear audience, it looks like this will become a prosperous area for humans."
Stanley, who has high emotional intelligence, understood the meaning immediately, and cooperated with Qi Wei's words, saying something meaningful to the audience.
Afterwards, Stanley followed the interview process and asked, "Then Director Qiwei, can we go to the matter decompressor station and take a brief look at the work process?"
"Of course, please be patient for a moment."
Not long after, the spacecraft successfully arrived at the matter decompressor along the predetermined orbit.
The interview team followed Qi Wei to the base, and accompanied by the local garrison, they visited the production center, refinery, dormitory and other areas on the decompressor.
Of course, the real core area of the refining device area would never allow any non-staff to enter for a visit or stroll around.
The key device of the matter decompressor is the huge gravity transmitter.
The transmitter can emit a powerful distorted gravity to the black hole to overcome the force of the black hole's gravity and suck matter out from the depths of the black hole like pumping water.
Then, with the help of the automatic material decompressor, processor and furnace on the track, the corresponding minerals can be extracted.
Standing on the observation platform, the gravity line looks like a laser cannon, but in fact, the power of this thing is far more exaggerated and terrifying than any laser cannon of the giant enterprise!
If this is used in a star-blasting project, it can be done in just a few seconds.
At this time, the interview team at the matter decompressor site was asking Qiwei various questions.
Far away in the lobby of Ideal City headquarters, Li Ang had just finished today's work.
He went to the large platform on the top floor alone and enjoyed this rare moment of leisure.
During this year, the world's giant enterprises fully mobilized by Li Ang are upgrading various industries and expanding production at a leapfrog speed.
Whether it is the Arasaka department that provides military training and school education, the Yeshi department responsible for logistics and urban reconstruction, or the Orbital Aviation Department that builds megastructures.
During this year, everyone worked at full speed and like crazy.
However, if we were to say which department has the highest expenses, it would have to be the R&D department of the Science Hub.
The director of this giant structure is Leon's trusted member, Otto Cunningham, but the person actually in charge of most scientific research projects is the High Knight - Zuma!
In fact, most of the members of Li Ang's scientific research team are Gaoqishi people. They are almost born engineers and therefore have extraordinary talents in the field of research and development.
Ever since the giant corporation acquired various new technological points, data and physical samples on Earth in "Underworld" and "Pacific Rim", the scientific research department of the giant corporation has broken through restrictions in many fields.
These technological points are all real, they are technologies that humans have mastered and scientific truths!
Li Ang believes that it won’t be too long before this global giant company can get rid of the system’s “bottleneck” and achieve fully automated scientific and technological production.
He can produce as many matrices and star gates as he wants.
At that time, V will be directly arranged to lead the Astartes warriors, just like clearing a dungeon, to infinitely expand the industrial zone of the giant enterprise outside.
The gene seeds can be transformed and edited however you want, breaking through the emperor's original physique, reaching a higher level, and becoming a truly perfect emperor!
