Hearing Zhou Xing's serious warning, countless viewers who watched the live broadcast of the press conference were awe-inspiring.

Losing four hundred years of life for a little wealth is not worth the loss, so most people have stopped hiding their intentions.

But! How did Zhou Xing get information about their personal wealth? Countless people are puzzled and looking forward to the pre-sale of life-extending gene products tomorrow.

The press conference on life-extending genes continues.

Zhou Xing pointed to a male reporter wearing a black suit and said, "The second question is for this gentleman."

The male reporter looked happy and stood up impatiently.

Taking the microphone, the male reporter looked at Zhou Xing and thanked him gratefully: "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Zhou, for giving me this opportunity to ask questions. I am Zhu Tao, a reporter from the Global Times."

"You're welcome, do you have any questions? Let's get to the point." Zhou Xing waved his hand and asked with a smile.

"Okay, Mr. Zhou!" Zhu Tao nodded, looked at Zhou Xing and asked with concern: "Mr. Zhou, the 'Xingyao' you just showed is very large and very complex. How long is it expected to take for the 'Xingyao' to be ready?" Can you create it? Can you give us a detailed introduction to its research progress?"

In the auditorium, the reporters were attentive and staring at Zhou Xing. The question Zhu Tao asked was exactly what they were concerned about.

Zhou Xing looked at Zhu Tao and smiled helplessly: "You are very cunning, you asked more than one question!"

After speaking, Zhou Xing looked at the audience and answered Zhu Tao's question with a smile: "Building the 'Xingyao' will face more than a dozen problems. The biggest difficulty is its power system, which the 'Xingyao' will adopt." "Ion engine" generates high-energy particle flow to obtain power through "nuclear change". There is currently some progress in this aspect, and it is expected that power experiments can be started within 2-3 years; if the experiment is successful, the Xingyao using this power system will be powered within 30 days. It can reach the distant Mars."

"The second difficulty is the giant dock suitable for spacecraft assembly: the 'Xingyao' is very large, with an overall net weight of 170,000 tons. The location of the assembly dock, as well as the construction project and the expansion of the industrial chain, will be a long and Complex process."

"The third difficulty is the space positioning and communication system. In order for the 'Xingyao' to achieve interstellar voyages, it still lacks an accurate and stable positioning and communication system. If this problem cannot be solved, even if the 'Xingyao' is successfully built, we It can only rotate within the solar system, otherwise, it will easily cause Star Trek."

"The fourth difficulty is the force field environment inside the Xingyao. Human beings have become accustomed to the earth's gravity environment. I am now trying to realize this gravity environment inside the Xingyao. However, the progress of using centrifugal force to simulate the earth's gravity environment Not big."

"The fifth difficulty..."

Zhou Xing looked directly into the audience and introduced to everyone one by one the research difficulties faced by the "Xingyao".

In the audience, the reporters held their breath, listened carefully, and remembered that it was rare for Zhou Xing to introduce the research progress of the "Xingyao" in such detail. This opportunity was very rare.

Zhou Xing talked non-stop for about ten minutes, and finally concluded: "The construction of the 'Xingyao' is a huge and complex project of the century. The Xingyao Group cannot support it alone and requires the participation of all mankind. Therefore, the life extension gene project is I hope everyone can understand that we will adopt this sales model; as for the construction time of the Star Yao, I hope to fly to space on the Star Yao within 10 years."

After speaking, Zhou Xing picked up the mineral water on the table, unscrewed the bottle cap, and drank with a dry mouth.

"Bah, bang, bang..." Thunderous applause suddenly sounded, resounding throughout the sky.

Zhou Xing's explanation was so wonderful and magnificent that the reporters clapped their hands excitedly to pay tribute to him.

Zhou Xing put down the mineral water and smiled gratefully at the audience, "Thank you everyone, let's move on to the next question."

As soon as Zhou Xing finished speaking, the applause stopped abruptly.

The reporters raised their right hands high and looked at Zhou Xing eagerly, hoping for the next opportunity to ask questions.

Zhou Xing pointed to a foreign female reporter with short blond hair nearby: "Next question, please ask the lady in the front row."

The blonde female reporter took the microphone passed to her by her colleague, stood up, and introduced herself in fluent Mandarin: "Hello, Mr. Zhou, I am Tanasha, a reporter from Der Spiegel Times. The purpose of charging for life-extending gene products is very clear. I believe A lot of people will support it.”

"I hope so!" Zhou Xing looked at Tanasha, nodded and smiled.

"Mr. Zhou, because of your relationship, Xingyao Group has created countless amazing achievements and gained huge wealth. As you said before, with the birth of life-extending genetic medicine, the solidification time of the class with huge wealth will be As time goes on, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Do you have a way to solve this problem?" Tanasha looked at Zhou Xing thoughtfully and asked.

Hearing this, Zhou Xing was slightly startled, not expecting Tanasha to ask him such a question.

In the audience, the reporters glared angrily. They had already heard Tanasha's "innuendo" accusation on this question.

Xingyao Group has released more than a dozen products that subvert human industries. Nano-medical cabins have caused a large number of medical devices around the world, medical factories have collapsed, photonic computers have caused the collapse of electronic semiconductor industry groups, and biological 3D printers have changed the industrial manufacturing model... It can be said that Xingyao Group has The wealth that Yao Group has earned in every field is built on the "corpses" of countless failed companies.

"Mr. Zhou, is this question difficult to answer?" Tanasha looked at Zhou Xing and asked with a smile.

Zhou Xing smiled casually, shook his head and said: "This question is very simple. Scientific and technological progress is actually the best way to eliminate the uneven distribution of rich and poor."

Tanasha's blue eyes looked at Zhou Xing silently, waiting to hear his answer.

Zhou Xing looked directly at Tanasha, his face straightened, and he gave an impassioned speech: "With the rapid progress of science and technology, human material civilization has become highly developed, from quantitative changes to qualitative changes. Once humans enter interstellar civilization, the endless sea of stars will open its arms to humans. , by then we will have unlimited resources in the universe, create more massive new industries, and will no longer be trapped by the limited resources of the earth. The system of human civilization will change, the overall political pattern will follow the progress, and human society will have countless opportunities to create wealth. As long as you work hard and dare to take risks, there will be countless wealth waiting for everyone to pick up."

Hearing this, Tanasha was speechless. The scene described by Zhou Xing was immersive and very possible.

"Okay! Mr. Zhou, what you said is great!"

"That's right! Our goal is the sea of stars!"

"President Zhou, you are so powerful!"

“…”

Zhou Xing's introduction made the reporters in the audience excited, and they couldn't help but cheer.

Zhou Xing looked at the excited crowd in the audience and apologized apologetically, saying: "With the rise of Shining Star Group, many practitioners in the same industry are facing huge difficulties, and many people need to relearn skills and find new jobs. I apologize here deeply."

The next second, Zhou Xing's expression became serious, and his tone changed: "However, I don't think I am wrong. Backward industries and backward technology will only waste the earth's limited resources, and at the same time, damage the future development space of mankind." , Shining Star Group will always implement its philosophy, work hard for the development of human science and technology, and will not stop because of any difficulties."

"Bah bang bang..." As soon as Zhou Xing finished speaking, a burst of thunderous applause erupted in the venue.

In response to Zhou Xing's speech, reporters applauded and showed their highest respect.

"Thank you, let's move on to the next question." Zhou Xing looked at the audience and announced with a smile.

“…”

Soon, the question and answer session of the press conference came to an end.

The life extension gene product launch conference came to an end. Countless media around the world broadcast the launch almost simultaneously, and the homepage of the website was replaced with the news as quickly as possible.

"The life-extending genetic medicine will be officially launched at 9 o'clock tomorrow, and human life span will be extended five times."

"Genius scientist Zhou Xing gave up the opportunity to become rich and powerful and announced the 'Xingyao' project, investing 10% of the world's wealth in the aerospace field."

"The magnificent interstellar era is about to begin. Soon, we will be roaming in space on the 'Xingyao'."

"The genius scientist Zhou Xing is about to carry out the most ambitious 'shipbuilding' plan, and he will single-handedly spur the progress of human civilization!"

"After tomorrow, humans can live five hundred years, and the interstellar age is about to come."

"Aboard the Xingyao, the journey between Earth and Mars only takes 30 days."

“…”

Various and similar news headlines have appeared on the websites of major media outlets around the world. It seems that there is only one piece of news left in the entire human society, attracting the attention of countless people around the world.

Today is destined to be the most exciting and extraordinary day in human history.

Because of this press conference, office workers were not interested in going to work, businessmen were not interested in doing business, and pedestrians stopped walking... Except for those young children, there are billions of people in the world, and countless people stopped what they were doing to discuss life-extending genes. The effect of the potion, the charging model, and the "Xingyao" project of the Shining Star Group.

Pedestrians on the streets of major cities around the world are in a hurry, and the spacious streets are sparsely populated. People are rushing home as fast as possible. They are doing the same thing, entering the official website of Xingyao Group and registering as a member. Fill in your personal wealth information and prepare to buy life-extending gene products.

WASHINGTON - The White House, the conference room, fell into a deathly silence.

Federal President Rirus, the senior officials of the national government, and the think tank expert group, all had a biting chill on their bodies, and their faces were pale and their eyes were dim.

In the bright conference hall, everyone seemed to see a scene of the empire falling into darkness with no future.

"Didi..." A rapid siren suddenly sounded from the Finance Minister, breaking the silence.

The Finance Minister quickly took out the mobile phone in his pocket and checked it, and then his expression suddenly changed.

Everyone's expressions tightened and they all looked at him.

Finance Minister Northam raised his head, looked at President Reilus with difficulty, and asked: "Mr. President, national bonds have been sold off massively by five European central banks. The decline in the currency index has been exaggerated to 7.2%. The decline continues, and the risk of market collapse is emerging." Sharp rise…what are we going to do?”

Now, what can he do

President Rilus gave a bitter smile, his energy seemed to have collapsed, and his whole temperament became "bald".

From the moment Shining Star Group announced its life-extending gene product, President Rilus had expected this result.

It was originally thought that the Shining Star Group would make a lot of money through life-extending gene products. Since then, they have had the opportunity to unite with other countries to put pressure on Shining Star Group and China on the grounds of technology monopoly, and strive to share this "life-extending gene technology" Opportunity".

However, what everyone didn't expect was that Zhou Xing had another plan. He announced the establishment of an "Aerospace Development Fund" and a plan to build a "Xingyao" interstellar spacecraft. All of his plans suddenly came to nothing. .

Zhou Xing's "interstellar spacecraft" construction plan is very in line with the common interests of all mankind.

The world is facing a severe crisis of excessive productivity and severe financial fears. It is in urgent need of a super-large industry to lead all mankind to develop towards a more prosperous civilization. At the same time, once this plan is successfully implemented, it will completely solve the problems of human society. Dilemmas arising from life-extending genetic agents.

No one in the entire human race can refuse life-extending gene products, let alone the "shipbuilding" project. One link after another, because of Zhou Xing's relationship, the general trend of China has become established, and now it can no longer be restrained.

President Rilus looked at Finance Minister Northam and nodded helplessly: "I know how to do it."

After a pause, President Rilus looked at his secretary Kylena and ordered: "Kylena, make a call to Beijing and invite and arrange a meeting between the two parties as soon as possible."

"Okay!" Kylena nodded, quickly turned around and left.

Watching Kylena leave, a heavy sigh sounded in the conference room.

Bloom looked at President Rirus and asked, "Mr. President, do you plan to...?"

President Rirus glanced at Bloom, looked at everyone and mobilized: "Everyone, the worst has happened. Since we are falling behind, we must face the 'reality' bravely and prepare to start a 'negotiation war'! The United States The Federation still has sufficient confidence to meet the 'challengers'. Even if we 'lose', we will still have to bite off a piece of 'meat' from our opponents."

Hearing this, everyone was shocked, yes! Even though technology, economy, and national strength have all lagged behind, the United States Federation still possesses the most powerful military strength in the world. "Challengers" who want to establish a new order must pay a "heavy" price.

Like the meeting at the White House, after the Shining Star Group press conference, high-level governments around the world held emergency meetings to discuss policies towards "China" throughout the night.

At the press conference, the "Xingyao" design shown by Zhou Xing shocked the world. The plan to invest 10% of the world's wealth came from the call of the space universe. Everyone felt Zhou Xing's "ambition". Governments of various countries They are full of "interest" in this shipbuilding project. At the same time, life-extending gene products are a technology that all mankind cannot give up.

The "bait" thrown by Zhou Xing exudes fatal attraction, attracting countless people around the world to stay up all night and stay up all night.
