As Chen Mo interrupted, the focus fell on him again.
It is not surprising that Chen Mo has objections to the agreement.
From the beginning, everyone knew that this meeting was aimed at the army ant group declaring its ownership of Mars. I'm just curious about what Chen Mo will say next.
"Mr. Chen Mo, which treaty do you have objections to?"
"all."
"The principle of the revision of our space agreement is that space exploration and utilization must be for the benefit and benefit of all mankind. Don't you agree?" Jim squinted his eyes and said: "In other words, you are just for your own interests and don't care about the whole world. Humanity’s interests?”
"That's a good tip, so I'm going to chat with the savages today, just for fun after research."
Chen Mo picked up the water cup Xiaoyu prepared for him and took a sip of water.
Seeing Chen Mo's serious attitude, the others couldn't help but cheer up.
Next is the highlight of today's conference.
"Article 1 of the agreement states that the exploration and use of outer space must be for the benefit of all mankind. I spent a huge amount of money to develop Mars, but in the end it will be used by humans? Does it count as benefiting humans?"
"No, you declared ownership of Mars for your own benefit." Jim said without hesitation.
"Only if it is open to you for free can it be regarded as benefiting mankind? Then whose research funds I spend will be counted? If you don't provide funds, why do you ask every space development agency to be a holy mother and use their own funds? In development and research, the risks are your own, but the results must be provided to all mankind for free?”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the venue was stagnant.
Chen Mo's first question was straight to the soul.
But no one on the court cared, nor did they feel embarrassed. They just hoped that what Chen Mo said would be the best.
Jim didn't even care. He took a sip of coffee and took a leisurely breath. He didn't listen to Chen Mo's words and didn't care at all about what he had to say.
After Chen Mo finished speaking, Jim spoke calmly.
“The international community can provide some financial support to development agencies.”
"Who is the international community? How much is the partial funding? 10% of the funding? 30%? 50%? 100 million? 200 million or 300 million?"
Seeing that the people on the field still looked attentive, Chen Mo continued.
"The final interpretation of this concept of 'part' belongs to the 'international community'? Promise a blank check? Is support for 10 cents also support? Why do research institutions accept such insignificant financial support, and the results must be provided to all mankind for free? ?”
The scene became even quieter, and no one answered Chen Mo's words.
There is no answer. The Outer Space Agreement is inherently too idealistic, but Chen Mo just expressed these ideals.
Jim smiled coldly, put down the coffee in his hand, and cleared his throat.
After grinding for a while, you spoke quietly.
"If you show a few videos and PPTs, it cannot prove that Mars was transformed by you. It is not enough evidence to prove that Mars was transformed by you. Now Mars belongs to all mankind."
Jim didn't dwell on the topic, and some of the other space researchers nodded in agreement.
“Aren’t videos and project data considered evidence?”
"We can also produce a similar video and data content. Does Mars belong to us?" Edo Castle next to Jim spoke, now preparing to besiege Chen Mo.
Chen Mo was immediately happy.
"If you have evidence and you say it's fake, then you're being unreasonable in front of people all over the world?"
Everyone on the scene didn't take Chen Mo's words to heart at all, they just laughed mockingly.
Innocent.
It is a double standard, how can it be purely reasonable
This world will never tell you pure truth, only shamelessness.
"If you don't talk about reason or evidence, let's talk about fists. Mars is occupied and controlled by me. If you want to develop Mars, you can launch a probe there yourself to see if you can successfully land on Mars. In other words, you can send a team to attack Mars. , or come and attack me."
After saying the last sentence, Chen Mo laughed mischievously.
"So cheap."
Through the live broadcast, countless people saw Chen Mo's mean smile, and three words came to mind. This smile can make people want to beat him up, which is very unpleasant.
But he didn't dare to fight and couldn't hit.
So angry.
Everyone at the conference table, who was originally planning to double standard to the end, heard Chen Mo's cheap laughter, which was extremely harsh and turned green.
"Extraterrestrial planets belong to all mankind, and you have no right to take them as your own."
Yang Werner, who had been listening and could not bear it now, immediately burst into action.
From the looks of it, Chen Mo was very unhappy.
"Now we're talking about fists. Are you telling me that you have no power? Whoever has a bigger fist has power." Chen Mo raised his finger at Yang Werner: "Your fist is bigger than mine? Come and hit me."
So cheap.
This meeting can be heard and watched live by everyone around the world.
Chen Mo's mean smile made people feel like they deserved a beating, and they wanted to hit him, but there was nothing they could do.
Yang Werner's face turned red and he was angry.
He didn't dare to take action, not outside, not even at the conference table. Chen Mo was carrying a weapon.
But they couldn't leave directly. If they left, Chen Mo would also leave the meeting, but he might not come back again.
"The Outer Space Treaty stipulates that outer space, including the moon and other celestial bodies, may not be appropriated as one's own through claims of sovereignty, use or occupation, or any other measures. You should know this."
Jim suppressed his displeasure, asked Yang Werner to sit down, and changed the topic back on track.
Chen Mo glanced at him.
"There's no point in reasoning. Whoever has the bigger fist now has the right. If you can beat me, I'll give you sparks."
Jim's face suddenly darkened.
"We will not say for the time being whether your evidence of transforming Mars is true or false. Even if it is true, you cannot privately declare that Mars belongs to you. Article 2 of the Outer Space Treaty stipulates that sovereignty claims, use or occupation shall not be used, and Any other measures to appropriate outer space, including the moon and other celestial bodies.”
"The whole world is at war now, why don't you use rules to restrain it? The old system is broken, and you use the laws of the old era as the rules of the new era? Who stipulates it? Who abides by it?"
Jim frowned.
I thought that restraining Chen Mo from the commanding heights of human morality and rules would have some effect, but it turned out that Chen Mo was so cunning.
Before Jim could speak, Chen Mo continued.
"Not to mention that this system is outdated. According to the regulations, one day in the future, if a planet with alien civilization is discovered outside the solar system, that planet will also belong to 'other celestial bodies'. So that planet also belongs to humans? You Tell the aliens that they are breaking the law and ask them all to move away
Also, if a group of aliens come to the solar system to develop and live on Venus, according to this rule, does Venus belong to humans or aliens? Is the universe opened by your family? "
"Aliens are aliens, but you are human, and you have to abide by human rules." Jim was asked a series of questions and choked out a sentence.
"You can't control the aliens, so why don't you control me?"
Chen Mo looked at Jim jokingly.
"I am a human being, so I should spend money to build a house and plant trees for you to live in? To provide you with shade? You just sit back and enjoy the benefits? Which rule are you talking about? Outer space law?"
"Okay, okay."
Seeing that Jim couldn't continue to argue, Edo Castle spoke.
"Since Mr. Chen has objections to this clause, it can be changed. The land used can be legally occupied by building settlements, bases, production, and development land.
Other land is not regarded as legal occupation. As long as any organization or individual establishes a settlement, base, production site or development site, the land used will be owned by him. "
"I don't agree with this treaty either. The new treaty should be that whoever allows the planet to have the conditions for life on a planet that has no conditions for life to survive will have the right to control, occupy and use the planet.
Only planets that cannot host life and planets that are found to have life will be governed by your terms. Of course, if you want to occupy a planet with life, the premise is that you can defeat the creatures on that planet instead of being counter-occupied by aliens.
If you don't obey this rule, you can use force to snatch my Mars, provided that you are not snatched away by me. "
“…”
The whole place fell into dead silence.
