It's night, on the tenth floor of Zhaicheng Space Center.

In the cafeteria, a small celebration banquet was held regarding the completion of the construction of the Earth-fire node transmission system.

It is said to be a celebration banquet, but in fact it is just a group of researchers and manufacturers involved in the Earth Fire Node line gathering together to eat and chat casually.

In a secluded corner.

Zhang Zhai, Professor Hu, Academician Gan, and General Engineer Chen were sitting together, chatting casually.

"...Earthfire node transmission, I didn't expect it to be realized so soon." Academician Gan took a sip of the tea in the cup, his eyes were a little hazy, and he seemed to be drunk if the tea was not intoxicating.

Zhang Zhai smiled when he heard this, picked up the cold drink in his cup and took a sip without answering.

Professor Hu, who was next to him, said with some emotion: "The earth-to-fire line has been successfully constructed, and from now on there is no distance barrier between earth and fire. Mr. Zhang, this can be considered the first step for us to take the whole solar system to support mankind."

"

Zhang Zhai smiled and nodded, and then continued, "But this is just the beginning."

"Yes, it's just the beginning. The road ahead is still long." Academician Gan said with emotion.

"Why, Academician Gan, are you afraid?" Professor Hu picked up the cup in front of him, took a sip of tea, looked at Academician Gan with a smile in his eyes, and joked.

"Afraid? What I mean is, I'm afraid I'll be busy next time..." Academician Gan responded with a smile,

However, as he spoke, Academician Gan changed his tone,

"However, I'm really a little scared. I'm afraid that the road is too long and I won't have time to see the end."

"No time?" Professor Hu joked with a smile,

"Academician Gan, don't worry. I guess we are the only ones buried in the soil. Mr. Zhang can dig us out and continue to squeeze us."

As he spoke, Professor Hu sighed deliberately, "Alas..."

Zhang Zhai smiled when he heard this and said, "How about I give Professor Hu two days off so that you can have a good rest?"

"Forget it, I still like to be busy." Professor Hu replied with a smile, "I'm still waiting for Mr. Zhang to dig me out of the soil."

As soon as the words fell, the four of them couldn't help but laugh.

time flies.

The simple celebration banquet was coming to an end, and all relevant personnel left one after another, and the cafeteria gradually became quiet.

After chatting casually for a while, the smiles on the faces of Zhang Zhai and others faded, their expressions became serious, and they began to talk about serious matters.

"...The Earth-Fire Node Transmission System has now been initially completed. Although it is only a one-way transmission from Earth to Mars for the time being, it is sufficient to meet the needs of subsequent plans.

Next, the Mars city construction plan and the matching resource extraction plan should also start to be implemented. At the same time, according to the previous plan, the Mars manned moon landing plan will also be carried out simultaneously."

Zhang Zhai looked at Professor Hu and the others and said in a deep voice,

“It’s time for the entire Zhaicheng Space Center to shift its focus away from the ground-to-fire node transmission system and shift it to the new plan that is about to be implemented.

At the same time, after the Mars city construction plan and manned landing plan are completed, the Mars immigration plan will also be implemented. Now we must put the plan on the agenda and start preliminary preparations."

Hearing this, Professor Hu, Academician Gan, and Chief Engineer Chen nodded one after another.

"Mr. Chen," Zhang Zhai said, turning to look at Mr. Chen, "How is the progress of various manufacturing tasks now? Are there any difficulties?"

"There are difficulties, but they can be overcome." Mr. Chen affirmed first, and then continued to report to Zhang Zhaihui,

"So far, in the Mars manned lunar landing plan, the Zhurong has been built and assembled, and the Yanhuang has completed the replacement of the anti-gravity system. The two spacecrafts responsible for the manned landing mission have been inspected and tried. The current situation is stable and can be

Undertake the mission of manned mission.

In the Mars city construction mission, the required prefabricated components and equipment are being manufactured intensively. The current situation is going smoothly, and the manufacturing progress has reached about 80%. It is expected that within a week, the manufacturing of the preliminary preparations for the Mars city construction plan will be completed.

Task.

The remaining manufacturing tasks, such as replacing the anti-gravity system of the spacecraft currently used for daily navigation and building a new spacecraft with a life support system, are currently progressing slowly due to low priority."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhai nodded and looked at the three people.

"Then we will launch the manned mission plan and the Mars city plan according to the original planned time."

Hearing this, Academician Gan and others nodded solemnly one after another.

After finishing the serious chat, a few people picked up the cold boiled tea in their cups and chatted for a few words casually.

Time passes slowly.

People in the cafeteria left one after another, and Professor Hu and others were persuaded by Zhang Zhai to take a rest.

Glancing at the empty canteen, Zhang Zhai also walked outside.

…

Rooftop lounge

Zhang Zhai half-reclined on his seat and sat under the window.

The window in the lounge was open, and the cool night breeze blew on Zhang Zhai's face from time to time, making him feel particularly awake and calm.

Looking up and looking out the window, there are stars embedded in the night sky and a bright moon hanging sideways.

Under the cover of night, Zhai City in the distance is still lit, showing a unique night scene.

Zhang Zhai's gaze moved from far to near, scanning the road under the night sky, Zhai City in the distance, and looking towards the sky.

After a long time, Zhang Zhai withdrew his gaze and looked at the holographic screen in front of him.

"A1, issue an announcement to the outside world. In ten days, Zhaicheng Aerospace will launch the Mars city construction plan and manned landing plan."

"Okay, father." A1 responded instantly,

"This is the content of the announcement. Does it need to be modified?"

Zhang Zhai glanced quickly and said, "That's it."

…

After completing the construction of the ground-to-fire node transmission system, the Zhaicheng Space Center gradually returned to calm and began to advance the new plan in an orderly manner.

In the outside world, the discussion about the ground-fire node transmission system is still continuing and boiling.

Xihe official website forum.

Due to the completion of the ground and fire node transmission system during the day, the number of people online at the same time in the Xihe Forum reached its peak in recent times.

At this moment, countless posts are being refreshed and added.

"My heart is surging and I can't control myself. No, I have to set off some fireworks to celebrate and vent my excitement."

"The node transmission system, this should be the most ambitious plan ever, it is so shocking!"

"I just want to say one thing, the great God Zhai!"

"The completion of the construction of the earth-fire node transmission system does it mean that the resources at human disposal have doubled again and prices will decrease again!"

"It will probably take some time. According to the official news released by the Zhaicheng Space Center, the current node transmission seems to be only one-way."

…

Countless people gathered, discussing excitedly and venting their uncontrollable excitement.

And while countless people were discussing excitedly, a new announcement quietly appeared on the homepages of Xihe's official website and Zhaicheng Aerospace's official website.

Xihe official website and Zhaicheng Aerospace official website already have huge attention.

At this moment, the moment the announcement appeared, countless people noticed it.

On the Xihe homepage, the top part is already occupied by a picture.

This is a real-time star map of a blue planet and an orange planet coexisting.

Between the Earth and Mars, hundreds of nodes have connected the two planets. As the Earth and Mars move, the nodes also move synchronously, as if the Earth and Mars are tied together.

On this screen, the title of the announcement appeared.

"'Using the entire solar system to support mankind' - Zhai City's manned landing plan on Mars and Mars city construction plan!"
Chapter completed!
